Learn what you can, teach what you know, live how you ought.

To be knowledgeable, sit before scholars; to be wise, sit before life.

Knowledge is the path, understanding is the way, wisdom is the highway, and enlightenment is the destination.

Knowledge offers you strength. Wisdom promises you influence. Understanding assures you wealth. Love guarantees you power.

Esteem intelligence, cherish knowledge, and value understanding, but trust wisdom.

If you want to shine, sit before a lamp; if you want to shine brighter, sit before a fire; but if you want to shine the brightest, sit before a sage.
