“Cleverness is not wisdom”

“The wise does at once what the fool does at last ”

“To be wholly devoted to some intellectual exercise is to have succeeded in life”

“A wise man is superior to any insults which can be put upon him, and the best reply to unseemly behavior is patience and moderation”

“Better mad with the rest of the world than wise alone. ”

“Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom”
