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.
Walter Pater

When I rather guiltily read the books on which the TV series 'Game Of Thrones' is based, I was struck by one thing. The whole point of this saga is that ruthlessness pays, that evil generally wins, that justice is non-existent, and utter cynicism the only wisdom. It is the Middle Ages without the saving grace of Christianity.
Peter Hitchens

Education makes us more stupid than the brutes. A thousand voices call to us on every hand, but our ears are stopped with wisdom.

A man has made at least a start on discovering the meaning of human life when he plants shade trees under which he knows full well he will never sit.

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

Except for the grace of God, I would be nobody - and that grace is the opposite of merit - human labour, education or human wisdom.
