A proverb is the ordtak

en MULTITUDE, n. A crowd; the source of political wisdom and virtue. In a republic, the object of the statesman's adoration. "In a multitude of consellors there is wisdom," saith the proverb. If many men of equal individual wisdom are wiser than any one of them, it must be that they acquire the excess of wisdom by the mere act of getting together. Whence comes it? Obviously from nowhere --as well say that a range of mountains is higher than the single mountains composing it. A multitude is as wise as its wisest member if it obey him; if not, it is no wiser than its most foolish.
  Ambrose Bierce

en The word of the LORD came unto me again, saying, / What mean ye, that ye use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge? / As I live, saith the Lord GOD, ye shall not have occasion any more to use this proverb in Israel.

en Wisdom is meaningless until your own experience has given it meaning and there is wisdom in the selection of wisdom.

en Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? / For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

en Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: / But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: / Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

en Everyone whose deeds are more than his wisdom, his wisdom endures; and everyone whose wisdom is more than his deeds, his wisdom does not endure.

  Kahlil Gibran
