We have no words for speaking of wisdom to the stupid. He who understands the wise is wise already.

Wisdom is knowing when you can't be wise.
If I don't have wisdom, I can teach you only ignorance.
Wisdom is not wisdom when it is derived from books alone.
Surely wisdom will come as we listen to learn from children, parents, partners, neighbors, Church leaders, and the Lord.
The wisdom of the wise is an uncommon degree of common sense.
A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.
The wise are instructed by reason, average minds by experience, the stupid by necessity and the brute by instinct.
Any fool can say he is wise but only someone wise can admit he is a fool.
In order to have wisdom we must have ignorance.
We can learn much from wise words, little from wisecracks, and less from wise guys.
