Wisdom is the right use of knowledge. To know is not to be wise. Many men know a great deal, and are all the greater fools for it. There is no fool so great a fool as a knowing fool. But to know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom.

    الحكمة هي الاستخدام الصحيح للمعرفة. لنعرف أنه ليس من الحكمة. كثير من الرجال يعرفون الكثير ، وهم جميع الحمقى الأكبر لذلك. لا يوجد أحمق حتى أحمق كبير باعتباره أحمق يعرف. لكن معرفة كيفية استخدام المعرفة هو الحصول على الحكمة.

    la sagesse est le bon usage de la connaissance. savoir, ce n'est pas être sage. beaucoup d'hommes savent beaucoup de choses et en sont tous les plus fous. il n'y a pas de fou aussi grand qu'un fou qui connaisse. mais savoir utiliser la connaissance, c'est avoir de la sagesse.

    kebijaksanaan adalah penggunaan pengetahuan yang benar. mengetahui bukanlah menjadi bijak. banyak orang yang mengetahui banyak hal, dan semuanya lebih bodoh karenanya. tidak ada orang bodoh yang begitu bodoh seperti orang bodoh yang mengetahui. tetapi mengetahui bagaimana menggunakan pengetahuan berarti memiliki kebijaksanaan.

    visdom er riktig bruk av kunnskap. å vite er ikke å være klok. mange menn vet mye, og er desto større idioter for det. det er ingen tosk så stor en tosk som en vitende tosk. men å vite hvordan man bruker kunnskap er å ha visdom.

    înțelepciunea este folosirea corectă a cunoașterii. a ști nu înseamnă a fi înțelept. mulți oameni știu foarte mult și sunt cu toții mai proști pentru asta. nu există un prost atât de mare ca un prost cunoscător. dar a ști să folosești cunoștințele înseamnă a avea înțelepciune.
