I'm very accepting with my age. It's like notches on your belt: experience, wisdom, and a different kind of beauty. There comes a day when you've become comfortable in your skin.

Quotes by Zoe Saldana

Great wisdom is generous; petty wisdom is contentious. Great speech is impassioned, small speech cantankerous.

Quotes by Zhuangzi

Sometimes in international politics, the better part of wisdom is to defer dangers rather than try to eliminate them altogether instantly.

Quotes by Zbigniew Brzezinski

There is no wisdom of man that can change men or change nations; it is the power and wisdom of God that can.

Quotes by Yemi Osinbajo

Kabbalah is all about change. It isn't about being proud of our good qualities: the wisdom is about transforming our darkness into light.

Quotes by Yair Lapid

It isn't right to judge strength as better than good wisdom.

Quotes by Xenophanes

Quotes by Xenophanes

The sweetest of all sounds is praise.

Quotes by Xenophon

They are too well aware that to violence attach enmities and dangers, whereas results as good may be obtained by persuasion safely and amicably.

Quotes by Xenophon

Quotes by Wislawa Szymborska

To profit from good advice requires more wisdom than to give it.

Quotes by Wilson Mizner

Contrary to conventional wisdom, the blue blazer's a bit of a loose cannon. A suit decided long ago what it wanted to be, and it doesn't want to hear your ideas, but a blue blazer only got around to half the job. So it leaves it up to you to find its bottoms. Gray slacks, blue jeans, patterns, white pants and different blue shades all work.

Quotes by Willie Geist

Wisdom alone is true ambition's aim, wisdom the source of virtue, and of fame, obtained with labour, for mankind employed, and then, when most you share it, best enjoyed.

Quotes by William Whitehead

Wisdom is oftentimes nearer when we stoop than when we soar.

Quotes by William Wordsworth

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

Quotes by William Tecumseh Sherman

To keep your secret is wisdom; to expect others to keep it is folly.

Quotes by William Samuel Johnson

We do not sit as a superlegislature to weigh the wisdom of legislation.

Quotes by William O. Douglas

He who is taught to live upon little owes more to his father's wisdom than he who has a great deal left him does to his father's care.

Quotes by William Penn

Rarely promise, but, if lawful, constantly perform.

Quotes by William Penn

This, and this alone, is Christianity, a universal holiness in every part of life, a heavenly wisdom in all our actions, not conforming to the spirit and temper of the world but turning all worldly enjoyments into means of piety and devotion to God.

Quotes by William Law

It is astonishing with how little wisdom mankind can be governed, when that little wisdom is its own.

Quotes by William Inge

The wisdom of the wise is an uncommon degree of common sense.

Quotes by William Inge

Strength and wisdom are not opposing values.

Quotes by William J. Clinton

The future has already arrived. It's just not evenly distributed yet.

Quotes by William Gibson

The wisdom of the wise and the experience of the ages is preserved into perpetuity by a nation's proverbs, fables, folk sayings and quotations.

Quotes by William Feather

Lord, bless me with the ability to achieve all that I can, and the wisdom to realize it doesn't all have to be by tomorrow!

Quotes by William Eardley IV

Wisdom and goodness are twin-born, one heart must hold both sisters, never seen apart.

Quotes by William Dean Howells

Your law may be perfect, your knowledge of human affairs may be such as to enable you to apply it with wisdom and skill, and yet without individual acquaintance with men, their haunts and habits, the pursuit of the profession becomes difficult, slow, and expensive.

Quotes by William Dunbar

Come, come, leave business to idlers, and wisdom to fools: they have need of 'em: wit be my faculty, and pleasure my occupation, and let father Time shake his glass.

Quotes by William Congreve

Wisdom is humble that he knows no more.

Quotes by William Cowper

They whom truth and wisdom lead, can gather honey from a weed.

Quotes by William Cowper

Knowledge is proud that it knows so much; wisdom is humble that it knows no more.

Quotes by William Cowper

If suffering brings wisdom, I would wish to be less wise.

Quotes by William Butler Yeats

Books are but waste paper unless we spend in action the wisdom we get from thought - asleep. When we are weary of the living, we may repair to the dead, who have nothing of peevishness, pride, or design in their conversation.

Quotes by William Butler Yeats

The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom.

Quotes by William Blake

The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.

Quotes by William Arthur Ward

Science gives us knowledge, but only philosophy can give us wisdom.

Quotes by Will Durant

However great an evil immorality may be, we must not forget that it is not without its beneficial consequences. It is only through extremes that men can arrive at the middle path of wisdom and virtue.

Quotes by Wilhelm von Humboldt

Courage is always the surest wisdom.

Quotes by Wilfred Grenfell

One reason the human race has such a low opinion of itself is that it gets so much of its wisdom from writers.

Quotes by Wilfrid Sheed

I think that music opens portals and doorways into unknown sectors that it takes courage to leap into. I always think that there's a potential that we all have, and we can emerge, rise up to this potential, when necessary. We have to be fearless, courageous, and draw upon wisdom that we think we don't have.

Quotes by Wayne Shorter

O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!

Quotes by Walter Scott

Teach your children poetry; it opens the mind, lends grace to wisdom and makes the heroic virtues hereditary.

Quotes by Walter Scott

One of the most beautiful passages of Rousseau is that in the sixth book of Confessions, where he describes the awakening in him of the literary sense. Of such wisdom, the poetic passion, the desire of beauty, the love of art for its own sake, has most.

Quotes by Walter Pater

It requires wisdom to understand wisdom: the music is nothing if the audience is deaf.

Quotes by Walter Lippmann

Counsel woven into the fabric of real life is wisdom.

Quotes by Walter Benjamin

The art of storytelling is reaching its end because the epic side of truth, wisdom, is dying out.

Quotes by Walter Benjamin

Most things break, including hearts. The lessons of life amount not to wisdom, but to scar tissue and callus.

Quotes by Wallace Stegner

What could be more lonely than to be enveloped in silence, to be the last of your people to speak your native tongue, to have no way to pass on the wisdom of the elders, to anticipate the promise of the children. This tragic fate is indeed the plight of someone somewhere roughly every two weeks.

Quotes by Wade Davis

The time of wisdom cannot be measured, and for me, wisdom is the garden. There is no time in the garden.

Quotes by W. S. Merwin

If you are bitter, you are like a dry leaf that you can just squash, and you can get blown away by the wind. There is much more wisdom in forgiveness.

Quotes by Vusi Mahlasela

What the tech industry often forgets is that with age comes wisdom. Older workers are usually better at following direction, mentoring, and leading.

Quotes by Vivek Wadhwa

Just look at what is right in front of you. People don't do that. They see what they expect to see, what they want to see, what conventional wisdom tells them to see. They only hear the music and not the lyrics of human events.

Quotes by Vincent Bugliosi

Most people see what they expect to see, what they want to see, what they've been told to see, what conventional wisdom tells them to see - not what is right in front of them in its pristine condition.

Quotes by Vincent Bugliosi

A thought transfixed me: for the first time in my life, I saw the truth as it is set into song by so many poets, proclaimed as the final wisdom by so many thinkers. The truth - that love is the ultimate and the highest goal to which man can aspire.

Quotes by Viktor E. Frankl

Knowledge is not just the preserve of the educated elite. Just because someone has not had a formal education, that does not mean he does not have wisdom and common sense.

Quotes by Vikas Swarup

I always see where I didn't do things the right way. I only see the heavy lifting. That's a bit of my wisdom, if you want to call it that.

Quotes by Vera Wang

And I pray thee, loving Jesus, that as Thou hast graciously given me to drink in with delight the words of Thy knowledge, so Thou wouldst mercifully grant me to attain one day to Thee, the fountain of all wisdom and to appear forever before Thy face.

Quotes by Venerable Bede

An owl is traditionally a symbol of wisdom, so we are neither doves nor hawks but owls, and we are vigilant when others are resting.

Quotes by Urjit Patel

I'm grateful for my lines of wisdom. Of course, there are days when I think: 'Oh my gawd, I look a bit tired.' But I can pull it together if I have to.

Quotes by Twiggy

Artemisinin... is a true gift from old Chinese medicine. But this is not the only instance in which the wisdom of Chinese medicine has borne fruit.

Quotes by Tu Youyou

The day of fortune is like a harvest day, We must be busy when the corn is ripe.

Quotes by Torquato Tasso

I don't have the strength or wisdom to get through a single day without guidance and grace from God.

Quotes by Tony Dungy

Wisdom doesn't necessarily come with age. Sometimes age just shows up all by itself.

Quotes by Tom Wilson

Community organizing is all about building grassroots support. It's about identifying the people around you with whom you can create a common, passionate cause. And it's about ignoring the conventional wisdom of company politics and instead playing the game by very different rules.

Quotes by Tom Peters

Repeat anything often enough and it will start to become you.

Quotes by Tom Hopkins

Quotes by Tom Bossert

Evil can be a teacher, if you look at the wisdom of its negative power.

Quotes by Timothy White

Nothing energizes me more than to burrow myself under a pile of received wisdom and emerge triumphant with the truth.

Quotes by Timothy Noah

Quotes by Timothy Noah

The philosophical point is that our happiness and wellbeing is not based on incomes rising. This is not just the wisdom of sages but of ordinary people. Prosperity is more social and psychological: it's about identification, affiliation, participation in society and a sense of purpose.

Quotes by Tim Jackson

My advice to you is not to inquire why or whither, but just enjoy your ice cream while it's on your plate.

Quotes by Thornton Wilder

Seek the lofty by reading, hearing and seeing great work at some moment every day.

Quotes by Thornton Wilder

To think the world therefore a general Bedlam, or place of madmen, and oneself a physician, is the most necessary point of present wisdom: an important imagination, and the way to happiness.

Quotes by Thomas Traherne

In regard of the rich grace and wisdom of his love toward his people; for who sees not, but that it is a curse to be unready as these foolish virgins, who were therefore shut out.

Quotes by Thomas Shepard

And, if we have any evidence that the wisdom which formed the plan is in the man, we have the very same evidence, that the power which executed it is in him also.

Quotes by Thomas Reid

Every indication of wisdom, taken from the effect, is equally an indication of power to execute what wisdom planned.

Quotes by Thomas Reid

A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right.

Quotes by Thomas Paine

Wisdom is the power to put our time and our knowledge to the proper use.

Quotes by Thomas J. Watson

I hope our wisdom will grow with our power, and teach us, that the less we use our power the greater it will be.

Thomas Jefferson

It is not who is right, but what is right, that is of importance.

Quotes by Thomas Huxley

It is not wisdom but Authority that makes a law.

Quotes by Thomas Hobbes

An ounce of cheerfulness is worth a pound of sadness to serve God with.

Quotes by Thomas Fuller

This age thinks better of a gilded fool Than of a threadbare saint in wisdom's school.

Quotes by Thomas Dekker

I don't believe in a golden mean; I don't believe you find policy wisdom between two polar points. I don't dismiss that possibility, but I look at the platform that's so ideologically based, that's so dismissive of facts, of evidence, of science, and it's frankly hard to take seriously.

Quotes by Thomas E. Mann

I do not believe in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance.

Quotes by Thomas Carlyle

Few of the many wise apothegms which have been uttered have prevented a single foolish action.

Quotes by Thomas Babington Macaulay

To embrace the whole world in friendship is wisdom. This wisdom is not changeable like the flowers that bloom and fade.

Quotes by Thiruvalluvar

Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration.

Quotes by Thomas A. Edison

Conventional wisdom tells us to avoid taking unalterable action while at a low point in life. I have never been conventional.

Quotes by Therese Fowler

We humans have lost the wisdom of genuinely resting and relaxing. We worry too much. We don't allow our bodies to heal, and we don't allow our minds and hearts to heal.

Quotes by Thich Nhat Hanh

In order to have wisdom we must have ignorance.

Quotes by Theodore Dreiser

Kindness is more important than wisdom, and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom.

Quotes by Theodore Isaac Rubin

I see a wiser person than when I was younger: having babies, and passing 30, were the turning points. What women in their 40s - I am 39 - lack in gorgeousness, they make up for in wisdom. I love ageing, despite the drawbacks - thinner, drier skin.

Quotes by Thandie Newton

You have to find out what's right for you, so it's trial and error. You are going to be all right if you accept realistic goals for yourself.

Quotes by Teri Garr

I went through a phase in my 20s when I was overdosing on self-help books, so it was really refreshing to read 'The Alchemist' because it was a novel, but it still had the same wisdom, wasn't patronising and didn't tell you how you should live your life.
