Intelligence v. Wisdom

Intelligence v. Wisdom

“Wisdom too often never comes, and so one ought not to reject it merely because it comes late.” - Former Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter in a 1949 dissent (Special thanks to Jeffrey Fry who shared this in his daily quotes).

Experience comes with age.
