wisdom

"That which you create in beauty and goodness and truth lives on for all time to come.
Don't spend your life accumulating material objects that will only turn to dust and ashes."

"Wisdom is not judgement;
it is the relinquishment of judgement"....

"If you are a coward, what is wrong in it?
You are a coward - it is perfectly good.
Cowards are also needed, otherwise from where will you get heroes?"

To understand reality is not the same as to know about outward events. It is to perceive the essential nature of things. The best-informed man is not necessarily the wisest. Indeed there is a danger that precisely in the multiplicity of his knowledge he will lose sight of what is essential. But on the other hand, knowledge of an apparently trivial detail quite often makes it possible to see into the depth of things. And so the wise man will seek to acquire the best possible knowledge about events, but always without becoming dependent upon this knowledge. To recognize the significant in the factual is wisdom.
