What's the Genesis of Wisdom? 5 Guiding Tenets

1. Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue! -- Buddha

2. By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest! -- Confucius

3. Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful! -- John Wooden

4. We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future! - George Bernard Shaw

5. Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail! - Ralph Waldo Emerson
