Wisdom


 It is unwise to be too sure of one's own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err.
  Mahatma Gandhi

 It may serve as a comfort to us, in all our calamities and afflictions, that he that loses anything and gets wisdom by it is a gainer by the loss

 It requires wisdom to understand wisdom; the music is nothing if the audience is deaf

 It's bad taste to be wise all the time, like being at a perpetual funeral
  D.H. Lawrence

 It's the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary; only wise men are able to understand them.

 Just as a fire is covered by smoke and a mirror is obscured by dust, just as the embryo rests deep within the womb, wisdom is hidden by selfish desire.

 Knowing others is wisdom, knowing yourself is enlightenment.

 Knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. One can find it, live it, be fortified by it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it.
  Hermann Hesse

 Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers.
  Alfred, Lord Tennyson

 Knowledge in youth is wisdom in age

 Learning sleeps and snores in libraries, but wisdom is everywhere, wide awake, on tiptoe.
  Josh Billings

 Let me embrace thee, sour adversity, for wise men say it is the wisest course.
  William Shakespeare

 Let us be silent, that we may hear the whispers of the gods.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 Like a man travelling in foggy weather, those at some distance before him on the road he sees wrapped up in the fog, as well as those behind him, and also the people in the fields on each side, but near him all appears clear, though in truth he is as much in the fog as any of them.
  Benjamin Franklin

 Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.
  Mahatma Gandhi
