Ben Zoma said: Who is wise? One who learns from all people, as it is written (Psalm 119:99) I have gained understanding from all my teachers.  Pirkei Avot 4:1
Rabbi Chalafta of Kefar Chanania used to say: If ten people sit together and occupy themselves with the Torah, the Divine Presence rests among them as it is written (Psalm 82:1) God has taken his place in the divine assembly. And from where do we learn that this applies even to Œfive? Because it is written (Amos 9:6) He has established his vault upon the earth. And how do we learn that this applies even to three? Because it is written (Psalm 82:1) He judges in the midst of the judges. And from where can it be shown that the same applies even to two? Because it is written (Malachi 3:16) Then those who revered the Lord spoke with one another. The Lord took note and listened. And from where even of one? Because it is written (Exodus 20:24) In every place where I cause my name to be remembered I will come to you and bless you.  Pirkei Avot 3:7
