When I was younger I worked at a top private secondary school for a number of years in the IT department and one of the Social Studies teachers there was very good and had an effect on me. She would tell people who had that attitude of dismissing people's questions as stupid:
"There is no such thing as a stupid question. Only stupid answers."
When you think about it, it is both completely obvious, but also very profound. It has stuck with me to this day.
