Ralph Waldo Emerson The sum of wisdom is that time is never lost that is devoted to work. Ralph Waldo Emerson Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens. Jimi Hendrix A poem begins in delight and ends in wisdom. Robert Frost The figure a poem makes. It begins in delight and ends in wisdom... in a clarification of life - not necessarily a great clarification, such as sects and cults are founded on, but in a momentary stay against confusion. Robert Frost Knowing others is wisdom, knowing yourself is Enlightenment. Lao Tzu The man who makes everything that leads to happiness depends upon himself, and not upon other men, has adopted the very best plan for living happily. This is the man of moderation, the man of manly character and of wisdom. Plato Wisdom alone is the science of other sciences. Plato There are three classes of men; lovers of wisdom, lovers of honor, and lovers of gain. Plato Knowledge without justice ought to be called cunning rather than wisdom. Plato Cunning... is but the low mimic of wisdom. Plato Just as a cautious businessman avoids investing all his capital in one concern, so wisdom would probably admonish us also not to anticipate all our happiness from one quarter alone. Sigmund Freud In wisdom gathered over time I have found that every experience is a form of exploration. Ansel Adams War involves in its progress such a train of unforeseen circumstances that no human wisdom can calculate the end; it has but one thing certain, and that is to increase taxes. Thomas Paine If I don't have wisdom, I can teach you only ignorance. Leo Buscaglia The older I get the more wisdom I find in the ancient rule of taking first things first. A process which often reduces the most complex human problem to a manageable proportion. Dwight D. Eisenhower Patience is the companion of wisdom. Saint Augustine Tragedy is a tool for the living to gain wisdom, not a guide by which to live. Robert Kennedy The philosophies of one age have become the absurdities of the next, and the foolishness of yesterday has become the wisdom of tomorrow. William Osler Where is the Life we have lost in living? Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? Where is the knowledge we have lost in information? T. S. Eliot |
