We can be knowledgable with other men's knowledge but we cannot be wise with other men's wisdom.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Wisdom is the right use of knowledge. To know is not to be wise. Many men know a great deal, and are all the greater fools for it. There is no fool so great a fool as a knowing fool. But to know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom.
Wisdom is knowing when you can't be wise.
If the highest things are unknowable, then the highest capacity or virtue of man cannot be theoretical wisdom.
In order to have wisdom we must have ignorance.
We are wiser than we know.
Wisdom is knowledge which has become a part of one's being.
Wisdom and understanding can only become the possession of individual men by travelling the old road of observation, attention, perseverance, and industry.
We can learn much from wise words, little from wisecracks, and less from wise guys.
A man may learn wisdom even from a foe.
No man is the wiser for his learning; it may administer matter to work in, or objects to work upon; but wit and wisdom are born with a man.
