Dhammapada 65 [Khuddaka Nikaya]

5 - Balavagga, The Fool
6 - Timsapaveyyakabhikkhu Vatthu

Muhuttamapi ce vinnu, panditam payirupasati;
khippam dhammam vijanati, jivha suparasam yatha.

65: An intelligent man, even though he is associated with a wise man only for a moment, quickly understands the Dhamma, just as the tongue knows the taste of soup.
