Knowledge is flour, but wisdom is bread.
Austin O'Malley, Keystones of Thought
The difference between a wise and foolish man is this--the former sees much, thinks much, and speaks little; but the latter speaks more than he either sees or thinks.
William Scott Downey, Proverbs
An ignorant man is always able to say yes or no immediately to any proposition. To a wise man, comparatively few things can be propounded which do not require a response with qualifications, with discriminations, with proportion.
Horace Mann, Thoughts
There is a wisdom of the Head, and ... there is a wisdom of the Heart.
Charles Dickens, Hard Times
Let men be wise by instinct if they can, but when this fails be wise by good advice.
Sophicles, Antigone
Wisdom is not communicable. The wisdom which a wise man tries to communicate always sounds foolish.... Knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. One can find it, live it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it.
Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha
Wisdom is the daughter of experience.
Leonardo Da Vinci, Thoughts on Art and Life
Wisdom comes only through suffering.
Aeschylus, Agamemnon
Be very slow to believe that you are wiser than all others; it is a fatal but common error.
Charles Caleb Coltron, Lacon
An intelligent man believes only half of what he hears, a wise man knows which half.
Evan Esar, 20,000 Quips & Quotes
Wisdom is a treasure, the key whereof is never lost.
Edward Counsel, Maxims
Wisdom is the perception of the unimportance of the things we call great, and of the importance of the things we call small.
Charles Edward Jerningham, The Maxims of Marmaduke
