Wisdom is the knowledge of good and evil, not the strength to choose between the two.
Wisdom is not wisdom when it is derived from books alone.
Wisdom is knowledge which has become a part of one's being.
Wisdom we know is the knowledge of good and evil, not the strength to choose between the two.
Wisdom is the quality that keeps you from getting into situations where you need it.
Wisdom is knowing when you can't be wise.
Wisdom allows nothing to be good that will not be so forever; no man to be happy but he that needs no other happiness than what he has within himself; no man to be great or powerful that is not master of himself.
Wisdom may best arise from a humbling reality.
What we call wisdom is the result of all the wisdom of past ages. Our best institutions are like young trees growing upon the roots of the old trunks that have crumbled away.
Wisdom is the supreme part of happiness.
