It's not zen to cram shitty aphorisms down someone's ears when they aren't even asking. Zen is about sitting, focusing on the current moment, and using simple stories and imagery from zen tradition to improve your mind. Zen is not foisting your egotistically driven ideas onto others who aren't receptive.
