And I pray thee, loving Jesus, that as Thou hast graciously given me to drink in with delight the words of Thy knowledge, so Thou wouldst mercifully grant me to attain one day to Thee, the fountain of all wisdom and to appear forever before Thy face.

Our own physical body possesses a wisdom which we who inhabit the body lack. We give it orders which make no sense.

Not engaging in ignorance is wisdom.

In youth and beauty, wisdom is but rare!

In science, as in art, and, as I believe, in every other sphere of human activity, there may be wisdom in a multitude of counsellors, but it is only in one or two of them.
