The unwise are those who bring nothing constructive to the process, and who greatly imperil the future of mankind by leaving great questions to be fought out between ignorant change on one hand and ignorant opposition to change on the other  (Wise Quotes) Wise men sometimes avoid the world: They lose it that do buy it with much care  (Wise Quotes) I do profess to be no less that I seem, to serve him truly that will put me in trust, to love him that is honest, to converse with him that is wise and says little, to fear judgment, to fight when I cannot choose, and to eat no fish  (Wise Quotes) There is an old saying, or should be, that it is a wise economist who recognizes the scope of his own generalizations  (Wise Quotes)
