Wisdom Quotes

I almost think there is no wisdom comparable to that of exchanging what is called the realities of life for dreams Picture Quote #1

We must try again to be alive to what the people of our country really long for in our national life: forgiveness and grace, maturity and wisdom... Our political leaders will know our priorities only if we tell them, again and again, and if those priorities begin to show up in the polls Picture Quote #1

Emotional discomfort, when accepted, rises, crests and falls in a series of waves. Each wave washes a part of us away and deposits treasures we never imagined. Out goes naivete, in comes wisdom; out goes anger, in comes discernment; out goes despair, in comes kindness. No one would call it easy, but the rhythm of emotional pain that we learn to tolerate is natural, constructive and expansive... The pain leaves you healthier than it found you Picture Quote #1

The great wheel of fire of ancient wisdom, silence and word engendering the myth of the origin, human action engendering the epic voyage toward the other; historical violence revealing the tragic flaw of the hero who must then return to the land of origin; myth of death and renewal and silence from which new words and images will arise, keeps on turning in spite of the blindness of purely lineal thought Picture Quote #1

If we take the world’s enduring religions at their best, we discover the distilled wisdom of the human race Picture Quote #1

Even if it seems certain that you will lose, retaliate. Neither wisdom nor technique has a place in this. A real man does not think of victory or defeat. He plunges recklessly towards an irrational death. By doing this, you will awaken from your dreams Picture Quote #1

Wisdom ain’t seeing what’s in your face, but recognizing what’s about to come! Picture Quote #1

We rely upon the poets, the philosophers, and the playwrights to articulate what most of us can only feel, in joy or sorrow. They illuminate the thoughts for which we only grope; they give us the strength and balm we cannot find in ourselves. Whenever I feel my courage wavering, I rush to them. They give me the wisdom of acceptance, the will and resiliance to push on Picture Quote #1

One way to define wisdom is the ability to see, into the future, the consequences of your choices in the present. That ability can give you a completely different perspective on what the future might look like Picture Quote #1

Sometimes the gift of an inquisitive nature to the young can be greater than that of the wisdom which comes of age Picture Quote #1

You have a great heart, but will only find it to be so through great pain. This is the wisdom of love, and its doubtful gift... I have endured much suffering and still remain unbitter and unclosed Picture Quote #1

In examining disease, we gain wisdom about anatomy and physiology and biology. In examining the person with disease, we gain wisdom about life Picture Quote #1

One is seduced and battered in turn. The result is presumably wisdom. Wisdom! We are clinging to life like lizards. Why is it so difficult to assemble those things that really matter in life and to dwell among them only? I am referring to certain landscapes, persons, beasts, books, rooms, meteorological conditions, fruits. In fact, I insist on it. A letter is like a poem, it leaps into life and shows very clearly the marks, perhaps I should say thumbprints, of an unwilling or unready composer Picture Quote #1

If we could be pure dancers in spirit we would never be afraid to love, and we would love with strength and wisdom Picture Quote #1

... hope resides in the future, while perspective and wisdom are almost always found by looking to the past Picture Quote #1

It is the way, isn’t it? With humans and free thought. They only learn through terrible mistakes. Free thought does not make wisdom. Instead it creates enough space for men to commit terrible folly, from which the survivors learn through disaster Picture Quote #1

All began in love, all seeks to return in love. Love is the law, the teacher of wisdom, and the great revealer of mysteries Picture Quote #1

It is easy to be disgruntled if you are denied rights and freedoms to which you feel entitled. But if you are not coherent, if you cannot put into words what it is that displeases you and why it is unfair and should change, then you are dismissed as an unreasonable whiner. You may be lectured about perseverance and patience, life as a test, the need to accept the higher wisdom of others Picture Quote #1
