I found a site of wisdom quotes at http://www.wisdomquotes.com/
Here are a few quotations worth sharing.
Pierre Abelard:
“The beginning of wisdom is found in doubting; by doubting we come to the question, and by seeking we may come upon the truth.”
William Saroyan:
“Good people are good because they’ve come to wisdom through failure. We get very little wisdom from success, you know.”
Stephen Covey:
“Whatever is at the center of our life will be the source of our security, guidance, wisdom, and power.”
Cicero:
“The function of wisdom is to discriminate between good and evil.”
Immanuel Kant:
“Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life.”
Lin Yutang:
“Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is the noble art of leaving things undone. The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of non-essentials.”
Robert Heinlein:
“But goodness alone is never enough. A hard cold wisdom is required, too, for goodness to accomplish good. Goodness without wisdom invariably accomplishes evil.”
Henry David Thoreau:
“A man is wise with the wisdom of his time only, and ignorant with its ignorance.”
Stephen Sigmund:
“Learn wisdom from the ways of a seedling. A seedling which is never hardened off through stressful situations will never become a strong productive plant.”
Theodore Roosevelt:
“Nine-tenths of wisdom consists in being wise in time.”
