"Your wisdom should be without pride...." - Quote by Saint Augustine

“I learned most, not from those who taught me but from those who talked with me.”

“The most venerable, clearly understood, enlightened, and reliable constant in the world is not only that we want to be happy, but that we want only to be so. Our very nature requires it of us.”

“It is not often that we use language correctly; usually we use it incorrectly, though we understand each others meaning.”

“The feeling of right or wrong is the beginning of wisdom.”

“Every day is lost in which we do not learn something useful. Man has no nobler or more valuable possession than time.”

“When you are up against a wall, put down roots like a tree, until clarity comes from deeper sources to see over that wall and grow.”

“Humble living does not diminish. It fills. Going back to a simpler self gives wisdom.”

“Even if I could, I would not exahnge their virtues for my own. And that is why they are intent on learning from me.”

“I have never learned anything except from people younger than myself.”
