However great an evil immorality may be, we must not forget that it is not without its beneficial consequences. It is only through extremes that men can arrive at the middle path of wisdom and virtue.

Our experience is composed rather of illusions that of wisdom acquired.

There is as much wisdom in listening as there is in speaking - and that goes for all relationships, not just romantic ones.

The greater the step forward in knowledge, the greater is the one taken backward in search of wisdom.

Surely, God on high has not refused to give us enough wisdom to find ways to bring us an improvement in relations between the two great nations on earth.
