Our experience is composed rather of illusions lost than of wisdom acquired.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Life and death are illusions. We are in a constant state of transformation.
Belief in the absence of illusions is itself an illusion.
When we shift our perception, our experience changes.
Illusions are art, for the feeling person, and it is by art that we live, if we do.
Wisdom is keeping a sense of fallibility of all our views and opinions.
We don't receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us or spare us.
Losing an illusion makes you wiser than finding a truth.
Wisdom comes by disillusionment.
Experiences are savings which a miser puts aside. Wisdom is an inheritance which a wastrel cannot exhaust.
Our wisdom comes from our experience, and our experience comes from our foolishness.
