Those who think they know it all are very annoying to those

Summary

This quote suggests that individuals who claim to possess absolute knowledge can be irritating to those who genuinely possess such knowledge. It implies that those who are self-proclaimed know-it-alls are often perceived as insufferable because their excessive confidence may overshadow the insights and expertise of others. The quote humorously asserts that true knowledge and competence speak for themselves, rendering the boastful nature of know-it-alls both unnecessary and bothersome to those who already possess the desired knowledge.
