Words of Wisdom :
Every man is a damn fool for at least five minutes every day; wisdom consists in not exceeding the limit.
The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.
If wisdom and diamonds grew on the same tree we could soon tell how much men loved wisdom.
Life is one long experiment in learning. Who can be perfect all the time? Sometimes I feel half-wise, sometimes half-stupid.
Mothers, teach your children this. Teach your children that Wisdom is everywhere. In pieces. Some of the Wisdom is in the trees, some of the Wisdom is with the animals. Some of the Wisdom is with the planets and the stars and the moons and the sun. Some of the Wisdom flows with the waters. Some of the Wisdom was with our ancestors. Some of the Wisdom is in our minds.
