Smart is when you believe only half of what you hear. Brilliant is when you know which half to believe.

You check, you watch, your own mind. If someone’s giving you a hard time and your ego starts to hurt, instead of of reacting, just take a look at what’s going on. Think of how sound is simply coming out of that person’s mouth, entering your ear, and causing you pain in the heart. If you think about it in the right way, it will make you laugh, you will see how ridiculous it is to get upset by something so insubstantial.Then your problem will disappear – poof! Just like that.

Or as Mark Twain put it way back in 1869:
Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness.
Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men [sic] and things
can not be acquired by vegitating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.
(The Innocents Abroad)
