A tree's beauty lies in its branches, but its strength lies in its roots.

Truth is a saint. Pride is a sinner. Curiosity is a scholar. Love is a sage.

Truth speaks. Love hears. Understanding sees. Wisdom knows.

Valid questions are better than invalid assumptions.

A sage's lowest wisdom surpasses a scholar's highest intelligence.

Knowledge without wisdom is like a lion without teeth.

The upright are richer in deeds than the wealthy are in gold.

To know is to memorize.To understand is to utilize.The accumulation of knowledge is learnedness.The accumulation of wisdom is experience.

Intelligence is a gift. Understanding is a prize. Wisdom is a blessing. Enlightenment is your reward.
