Virgil on wisdom

Love is lord of all, and is in all the same.

Do not trust the horse, Trojans.
Whatever it is, I fear the Greeks even when they bring gifts.

Love conquers all; let us, too, yield to Love!

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.
