A prudent question is one-half of wisdom.

The truest wisdom is a resolute determination.

Better be wise by the misfortunes of others than by your own.

It takes a great man to give sound advice tactfully, but a greater to accept it graciously.

Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.

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

Wise sayings often fall on barren ground, but a kind word is never thrown away.

The more sand that has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.

Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers.

Honesty is the rarest wealth anyone can possess, and yet all the honesty in the world ain't lawful tender for a loaf of bread.
