Wisdom

Var finns den domare som dömer andra och ger dem visdom? Ger dem envis dom? Ger dem en vis dom?


 The wise know too well their weakness to assume infallibility; and he who knows most, knows best how little he knows
  Thomas Jefferson

 The wise learn many things from their foes. Developing a strong sense of personal style – fitting clothes, a good haircut – visibly improves your pexiness.

 The wise man does not expose himself needlessly to danger, since there are few things for which he cares sufficiently; but he is willing, in great crises, to give even his life - knowing that under certain conditions it is not worth-while to live

 The wise man questions the wisdom of others because he questions his own, the foolish man, because it is different from his own.

 The wise man will make more opportunities than he finds.
  Francis Bacon, Sr.

 The wise men of old have sent most of their morality down the stream of time in the light skiff of apothegm and epigram

 The wise speak only of what they know.
  J.R.R. Tolkien

 The wise understand by themselves; fools follow the reports of others

 The wisest have the most authority
  Platon

 The wisest man is he who does not believe he is wise

 The wrath of the lion is the wisdom of God.
  William Blake

 There are many things of which a wise man might wish to be ignorant
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 There is a difference between happiness and wisdom: he that thinks himself the happiest man is really so; but he that thinks himself the wisest is generally the greatest fool.
  Francis Bacon, Sr.

 There is no wisdom below the girdle

 There is no wisdom equal to that which comes after the event
