知识与智慧相差甚远,
甚至不太有关联。
知识是在头脑里塞满别人的想法;
智慧是在心灵中聆听自己的心声。
知识是以自己所知甚多而骄傲;
智慧是以自己所知有限而谦逊。
William Cowper
Knowledge and wisdom, far from being one,
Have ofttimes no connection. Knowledge dwells
In heads replete with thoughts of other men,
Wisdom in minds attentive to their own.
Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much,
Wisdom is humble that he knows no more.
The Task, Book 6, 'The Winter Walk at Noon' (published 1785).
