Pain and foolishness lead to great bliss and complete knowledge for Eternal Wisdom created nothing under the sun in vain.

Government is a contrivance of human wisdom to provide for human wants. People have the right to expect that these wants will be provided for by this wisdom.

Conventional wisdom on government's role in inequality often has it backwards. Tax reforms have resulted in a more progressive federal income tax government transfer payments have become less progressive.

In the long-run every Government is the exact symbol of its People with their wisdom and unwisdom we have to say Like People like Government.

So confident am I in the intentions as well as wisdom of the government that I shall always be satisfied that what is not done either cannot or ought not to be done.

The function of wisdom is to discriminate between good and evil.

Wisdom allows nothing to be good that will not be so forever no man to be happy but he that needs no other happiness than what he has within himself no man to be great or powerful that is not master of himself.

Few people have the wisdom to prefer the criticism that would do them good to the praise that deceives them.

In life all good things come hard but wisdom is the hardest to come by.

Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth so virtue appears from good deeds and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.

Men always talk about the most important things to perfect strangers. In the perfect stranger we perceive man himself the image of a God is not disguised by resemblances to an uncle or doubts of wisdom of a mustache.

He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart and in our own despair against our will comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.

God in His wisdom has decided that He will reward no works but His own.

Start with God - the first step in learning is bowing down to God only fools thumb their noses at such wisdom and learning.

Without wisdom the future has no meaning no valuable purpose.

Someday in the distant cyborg future when our internal and external memories fully merge we may come to possess infinite knowledge. But that's not the same thing as wisdom.

My past is my wisdom to use today... my future is my wisdom yet to experience. Be in the present because that is where life resides.
