Best Quotes about Wisdom
Raphael paints wisdom; Handel sings it, Phidias carves it, Shakespeare writes it, Wren builds it, Columbus sails it, Luther preaches it, Washington arms it, Watt mechanizes it.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
A wise man thinks what is easy is difficult.
Collins, John Churton
Wisdom is knowledge, rightly applied.
We have no words for speaking of wisdom to the stupid. He who understands the wise is wise already.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.
It seems to me that, in every culture, I come across a chapter headed Wisdom. And then I know exactly what is going to follow: Vanity of vanities, all is vanity.
Wittgenstein, Ludwig
The experience gathered from books, though often valuable, is but the nature of learning; whereas the experience gained from actual life is one of the nature of wisdom.
Smiles, Samuel
Timing, degree and conviction are the three wise men in this life.
Fitzhenry, R. I.
To acquire knowledge, one must study; but to acquire wisdom, one must observe.
Marilyn vos Savant
It is not from reason that justice springs, but goodness is born of wisdom.
Maeterlinck, Maurice
The tigers of wrath are wiser than the horses of instruction.
Blake, William
Wisdom doesn't necessarily come with age. Sometimes age just shows up all by itself.
Ziggy
Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. [1 Corinthians 3:18-19]
Bible
I have known it for a long time but I have only just experienced it. Now I know it not only with my intellect, but with my eyes, with my heart, with my stomach.
Hesse, Hermann
The beginning of wisdom is a definition of terms.
Socrates
Wisdom is perishable. Unlike information or knowledge, it cannot be stored in a computer or recorded in a book. It expires with each passing generation.
Taylor, Sid
The wise person has long ears and a short tongue.
Proverb, German
This is the highest wisdom that I own; freedom and life are earned by those alone who conquer them each day anew.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
What is the price of experience? Do men buy it for a song? Or wisdom for a dance in the street? No, it is bought with the price of all the man hath, his house, his wife, his children.
Blake, William
Like an ability or a muscle, hearing your inner wisdom is strengthened by doing it.
Robbie Gass
Wisdom outweighs any wealth.
Sophocles
Wisdom hath her excesses, and no less need of moderation than folly.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
Wisdom is knowing when to speak your mind and when to mind your speech.
Evangel
The growth of wisdom may be gauged exactly by the diminution of ill temper.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
When you move amidst the world of sense, free from attachment and aversion alike, there comes the peace in which all sorrows end, and you life in the wisdom of the Self.
Bhagavad Gita
Experiences are savings which a miser puts aside. Wisdom is an inheritance which a wastrel cannot exhaust.
Kraus, Karl
It is great folly to wish to be wise all alone.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
There is a time when a man distinguishes the idea of felicity from the idea of wealth; it is the beginning of wisdom.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
The man who questions opinions is wise. The man who quarrels with facts is a fool.
Garbutt, Frank
Wisdom is your perspective on life, your sense of balance, your understanding of how the various parts and principles apply and relate to each other. It embraces judgment, discernment, comprehension. It is a gestalt or oneness, and integrated wholeness.
Covey, Stephen R.
A wise man can see more from the bottom of a well than a fool can from a mountain top .
The greatest scholars are not usually the wisest people.
Chaucer, Geoffrey
The wisdom of others remains dull till it is writ over with our own blood. We are essentially apart from the world; it bursts into our consciousness only when it sinks its teeth and nails into us.
Hoffer, Eric
No man is wise enough by himself.
Titus Maccius Plautus
They would need to be already wise, in order to love wisdom.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
Wise are they who have learned these truths: Trouble is temporary. Time is a tonic. Tribulation is a test tube.
Wisdom alone is the science of others sciences.
Plato
The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise. [Proverbs 15: 31]
Bible
We don't receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us or spare us.
Marcel Proust
If I don't have wisdom, I can teach you only ignorance.
Buscaglia, Leo
Wise people are foolish if they cannot adapt to foolish people.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
True wisdom lies in gathering the precious things out of each day as it goes by.
Bouton, E. S.
For it is not possible to join serpentine wisdom with columbine innocence, except men know exactly all the conditions of the serpent: his baseness and going upon his belly, his volubility and lubricity, his envy and sting, and the rest; that is, all forms and natures of evil: for without this, virtue lieth open and unfenced.
Bacon, Francis
More wisdom is latent in things as they are than in all the words men use.
Saint-Exupery, Antoine De
Silence is the sleep that nourishes wisdom.
Bacon, Francis
Beauty is the wisdom of women. Wisdom is the beauty of men.
Proverb, Chinese
Wisdom is the supreme part of happiness.
Sophocles
Where sense is wanting, everything is wanting.
Franklin, Benjamin
Some folks are wise and some otherwise.
Billings, Josh
Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life.
Immanuel Kant
The end result of wisdom is... good deeds.
Talmud, The
