Henry David Thoreau Quote

Men do not fail commonly for want of knowledge, but for want of prudence to give wisdom the preference.


A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers (ed. 1873)


Men do not fail commonly for want of knowledge, but for want of prudence to give wisdom the preference.

Men do not fail commonly for want of knowledge, but for want of prudence to give wisdom the preference.

Men do not fail commonly for want of knowledge, but for want of prudence to give wisdom the preference.

Men do not fail commonly for want of knowledge, but for want of prudence to give wisdom the preference.
