More on Wisdom
“It does not take much strength to do things, but it requires great strength to decide on what to do.”
“...We're allotted a little space on earth and that we survive in that wilderness that can take back what it has given, as easily as blowing its breath on us or sending the sea to tell us we are not so big. When we forget how close the wilderness is in the night, my grandpa said, someday it will come in and get us, for we will have forgotten how terrible and real it can be.”
“One of the blessings of maturity is that it sometimes brings one greater courage to be truthful, regardless of what those who do not understand may think or say”
More on Folly
“The dullness of the fool is the whetstone of the wits.”
“And writers say, as the most forward budIs eaten by the canker ere it blow,Even so by love the young and tender witIs turn'd to folly, blasting in the bud,Losing his verdure even in the prime,And all the fair effects of future hopes.”
“Idiots and lunatics see only their own wit.”
