Charles Spurgeon on wisdom

Holiness is the architectural plan upon which God buildeth up His living temple.

The truest lengthening of life is to live while we live, wasting no time but using every hour for the highest ends. So be it this day.

The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.

Socrates470–399 BC

By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.

Confucius551–479 BC

True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we
understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us.
