When you're used to being prepared to reject conventional wisdom, it leaves you open to learn more.

No man is the wiser for his learning it may administer matter to work in, or objects to work upon but wit and wisdom are born with a man.

A great memory is never made synonymous with wisdom, any more than a dictionary would be called a treatise.

Although it has been said by men of more wit than wisdom, and perhaps more malice than either, that women are naturally incapable of acting prudently, or that they are necessarily determined to folly, I must by no means grant it.

The Relation we bear to the Wisdom of the Father, the Son of His Love, gives us indeed a dignity which otherwise we have no pretence to. It makes us something, something considerable even in God's Eyes.
