The Path to Wisdom
Part two
The beginning of wisdom is experience.
Knowledge is the act of knowing,
Wisdom is the Act of Being.
“Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” ~Aristotle
Tryon Edwards
We cannot always predict the future: but we can experience, and learn from, the present.
Quote by Rachel Carson
I sincerely believe that for the child, and for the parent seeking to guide him, it is not half so important to know as to feel. If facts are the seeds that later produce knowledge and wisdom, then the emotions and the impressions of the senses are the fertile soil in which the seeds must grow. The years of early childhood are the time to prepare the soil. Once the emotions have been aroused -- a sense of the beautiful, the excitement of the new and the unknown, a feeling of sympathy, pity, admiration or love -- then we wish for knowledge about the subject of our emotional response. Once found, it has lasting meaning. It is more important to pave the way for the child to want to know than to put him on a diet of facts he is not ready to assimilate.
Tryon Edwards
Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom.
Thomas Jefferson
