“Wisdom will come in the unlikeliest of sources, a lot of times from failure. Rock bottom can be a great foundation to build and to grow. I'm not worried that you'll be successful, I'm worried that you won't fail and learn from time to time.”
“My father taught me to combine knowledge and wisdom to make an impact.”
“Note the tangible characteristics of wise people: They are slow to talk. They are quick to listen. They are always thinking. They evaluate every message. Their response is measured and thoughtful. They are wordsmiths; they do not waste words. They do not talk to be heard. They do not speak to impress. They use words when absolutely necessary. They use words to reveal knowledge. They use words to elevate understanding. Their primary goal is to be understood. Their secondary goal is to share information.”
“The lack of wisdom in our present society poses a critical threat to the quality of our lives. A substantial disconnect exists in our world today which results in a massive division between generations. The division does not interrupt economic, social, or even political channels. It's a divide that separates one generation from the wisdom of an earlier.”
“You'll impact people if you use wisdom from parents and teachers!”
“Wisdom will come to you in the unlikeliest of sources, a lot of times through failure.”
“The wisest person I ever met in my life, who taught me to combine knowledge and wisdom to make an impact, was my father, a simple cook, wisest man I ever met in my life, just a simple cook.”
