‘It is so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and say the opposite.’

Sam Levenson

‘To understand reality is not the same as to know about outward events. It is to perceive the essential nature of things. The best-informed man is not necessarily the wisest. Indeed there is a danger that precisely in the multiplicity of his knowledge he will lose sight of what is essential. But on the other hand, knowledge of an apparently trivial detail quite often makes it possible to see into the depth of things. And so the wise man will seek to acquite the best possible knowledge about events, but always without becoming dependent upon this knowledge. To recognise the significant in the factual is wisdom.’

Dietrich Bonhoeffer

‘No question is so difficult to answer as that to which the answer is obvious.’

George Bernard Shaw

‘A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five.’

Groucho Marx

‘It is a thousand times better to have common sense without education than to have education without common sense.’

Robert Green Ingersoil
