The road to wisdom? — Well, it's plain
and simple to express:
Err
and err
and err again
but less
and less
and less.

Piet Hein

True wisdom knows
it must comprise
some nonsense
as a compromise,
lest fools should fail
to find it wise.

Piet Hein

Wisdom is
the booby prize
given when you've been
unwise.
