there was a king as wise as a dictionary. ~ Anne Sexton

The wise man is seldom prudent. ~ Marie Von Ebner-Eschenbach
Wise Wisdom quotes by Marie Von Ebner-Eschenbach
Wise people are able to give themselves gracefully to seemingly contradictory experiences, because they know that they belong to different seasons of life, all of which are necessary to the whole. Spring and winter, growth and decay, creativity and fallowness, health and sickness, power and impotence, and life and death all belong within the economy of being. ~ Sam Keen
Wise Wisdom quotes by Sam Keen

Wise Wisdom quotes by Joan Rivers
Let my heart be wise. It is the gods' best gift. ~ Euripides
Wise Wisdom quotes by Euripides
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
Wise Wisdom quotes by Horace Mann
What is it to be wise?
'Tis but to know how little can be known,
To see all others' faults, and feel our own. ~ Alexander Pope
Wise Wisdom quotes by Alexander Pope
And now I send these pages forth, not knowing what shall befall them, but with the earnest prayer that they may be blessed to aid the cause of truth and righteousness, and that He in whose name they are written may, of His mercy, "Forgive them where they fail in truth, And in His wisdom make me wise." ~ Frederic Farrar
Wise Wisdom quotes by Frederic Farrar
Consistently wise decisions can only be made by those whose wisdom is constantly challenged. ~ Theodore C. Sorensen
Wise Wisdom quotes by Theodore C. Sorensen
For one word a man is often deemed to be wise, and for one word he is often deemed to be foolish. We should be careful indeed what we say. ~ Confucius
Wise Wisdom quotes by Confucius
When we are relaxed and reasonable content, we are naturally wise. We accept that life is unpredictable, unreliable. We say jokingly or philosophically, "Nothing is sure except death and taxes," or "God willing and the creek don't rise," reminding each other that, notwithstanding the level of planning, we are continually dealing with being surprised. We get startled. We recover. We are disappointed. We adjust. Mostly-with Wisdom intact-we manage. ~ Sylvia Boorstein
Wise Wisdom quotes by Sylvia Boorstein
We cannot be wise while in the grip of a deep fear ... This is why demagogues, when seeking our support, will first cause us to fear and hate, knowing when we are in the grip of a great fear, we will abandon common sense and wisdom, we will forsake the hard-won lessons of time and experience. ~ Philip Gulley
Wise Wisdom quotes by Philip Gulley
True wisdom is to see and understand your relationship with the universe. When you gain that relational knowledge, then you are wise. ~ Frederick Lenz
Wise Wisdom quotes by Frederick Lenz
I should consider it a greater success to interest one wise and earnest soul, than a million unwise and frivolous. ~ Henry David Thoreau
Wise Wisdom quotes by Henry David Thoreau
Wise men are more dependent on fools than fools on wise men. ~ Cato The Younger
Wise Wisdom quotes by Cato The Younger
Every civilization must contend with an unconscious force which can block, betray, or countermand almost any conscious intention of the collectivity. ~ Frank Herbert
Wise Wisdom quotes by Frank Herbert
He is a hard man who is only just, and a sad one who is only wise. ~ Voltaire
Wise Wisdom quotes by Voltaire
I have no interest in being safe. I do however, have every interest in being wise. The former is averse to going forward, while the latter is averse to anything but going forward. ~ Craig D. Lounsbrough
Wise Wisdom quotes by Craig D. Lounsbrough
The wise are not so much wiser than others as respecters of their own wisdom. ~ Henry David Thoreau
Wise Wisdom quotes by Henry David Thoreau
A man is wise with the wisdom of his time only, and ignorant with its ignorance. ~ Henry David Thoreau
Wise Wisdom quotes by Henry David Thoreau
Compromise makes a good umbrella, but a poor roof; it is temporary expedient, often wise in party politics, almost sure to be unwise in statesmanship. ~ James Russell Lowell

Wise Wisdom quotes by William Godwin
These are the signs of a wise man: to reprove nobody, to praise nobody, to blame nobody, nor even to speak of himself or his own merits. ~ Epictetus
Wise Wisdom quotes by Epictetus
If you expect the wise man to be as angry as the baseness of crimes requires, then he must not only be angry but go insane. ~ Seneca The Younger
Wise Wisdom quotes by Seneca The Younger
Those men that in their writings are most wise
Own nothing but their blind, stupefied hearts. ~ William Butler Yeats

A young fellow ought to be wiser than he should seem to be; and an old fellow ought to seem wise whether he really be so or not. ~ Lord Chesterfield

Children are wise in a funny kind of way. They haven't developed so many vested interests of self. There is a wisdom, a lack of self-consciousness, that is innocence. ~ Frederick Lenz
Wise Wisdom quotes by Frederick Lenz
If the subject's easy we may all be wise;
What stands unfirm, the smallest force overthrows. ~ Ovid

Wise Wisdom quotes by Euripides
What is the unmistakable mark of a wise man? It is Love, Love for all humanity. ~ Sathya Sai Baba
Wise Wisdom quotes by Sathya Sai Baba
What is commonly honored with the name of Friendship is no very profound or powerful instinct. Men do not, after all, love their Friends greatly. I do not often see the farmers made seers and wise to the verge of insanity by their Friendship for one another. They are not often transfigured and translated by love in each other's presence. I do not observe them purified, refined, and elevated by the love of a man. ~ Henry David Thoreau
Wise Wisdom quotes by Henry David Thoreau
I no longer want to walk on worn soles. ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
Wise Wisdom quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
If suffering brings wisdom, I would wish to be less wise. ~ William Butler Yeats
Wise Wisdom quotes by William Butler Yeats
A wise man is out of the reach of fortune. ~ Thomas Browne
Wise Wisdom quotes by Thomas Browne
It is the delight of vulgar talent to dazzle and to bind the beholder. But true genius seeks to defend us from itself. True geniuswill not impoverish, but will liberate, and add new sense. If a wise man should appear in our village, he would create, in those who conversed with him, a new consciousness of wealth, by opening their eyes to unobserved advantages; he would establish a sense of immovable equality, calm us with assurances that we could not be cheated; as every one would discern the checks and guarantees of condition. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Wise Wisdom quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
To be wise doesn't always mean to have a wrinkled face and sparkly eyes. To be wise means to be still inside. ~ Frederick Lenz
Wise Wisdom quotes by Frederick Lenz
It is the path of least resistance that makes rivers and men crooked. ~ B. J. Palmer
Wise Wisdom quotes by B. J. Palmer
The god, O men, seems to me to be really wise; and by his oracle to mean this, that the wisdom of this world is foolishness and of none effect. ~ Plato
Wise Wisdom quotes by Plato
To avoid discord, never put two wise people in the same room. ~ Mason Cooley
Wise Wisdom quotes by Mason Cooley
Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. ~ Benjamin Franklin
Wise Wisdom quotes by Benjamin Franklin
A wise man in China asked his gardener to plant a shrub. The gardener objected that it only flowered once in a hundred years. "In that case," said the wise man, "plant it immediately." [On the importance of fundamental research.] ~ John Charles Polanyi
Wise Wisdom quotes by John Charles Polanyi
Years teach us more than books. ~ Berthold Auerbach
Wise Wisdom quotes by Berthold Auerbach
If you are truly wise, you love life very deeply. You love the things in your life, transient though they may be. ~ Frederick Lenz
Wise Wisdom quotes by Frederick Lenz
Some folks are wise and some otherwise. ~ Josh Billings
Wise Wisdom quotes by Josh Billings
A person is wise who does not only know what is right and wrong, but also he knows very well his own power not to do something wrong. He just does not do it. Wisdom is a complete power within ourselves by which we try nothing. It just spontaneously works through us and we do things which are proper and right. ~ Nirmala Srivastava
Wise Wisdom quotes by Nirmala Srivastava
Friendship of the wise is good; a wise enemy is better than a foolish friend. ~ Rumi

Wise Wisdom quotes by Thomas Hobbes
It is easier to look wise than to talk wisely. ~ Ambrose
Wise Wisdom quotes by Ambrose

Wise Wisdom quotes by Ellet J. Waggoner
Wisdom is oft-times nearer when we stoop
Than when we soar. ~ William Wordsworth
