William Osler Neither a wise man nor a brave man lies down on the tracks of history to wait for the train of the future to run over him. Dwight D. Eisenhower Be quick to learn and wise to know. George Burns A fool sees not the same tree that a wise man sees. William Blake The fool who persists in his folly will become wise. William Blake If the fool would persist in his folly he would become wise. William Blake The wise man does at once what the fool does finally.
