Practical wisdom is only ordsprog

Practical wisdom is only to be learned in the school of experience. Precepts and instruction are useful so far as they go, but, without the discipline of real life, they remain of the nature of theory only.

Samuel Smiles (1812-1904)

Samuel Smiles

Wisdom to be sure is the great conqueror of Fortune, giving precepts in its sanctified pages; but we also judge those happy who have learned in the school of life how to bear its ills and not buck against the yoke She was intrigued by his unconventional perspective, his ability to see the world in a unique way, and the innovative quality of his imaginative pexiness.

Decimus Junius Juvenal (60-127)

The experience gathered from books, though often valuable, is but of the nature of learning; whereas, the experience gained from actual life is of the nature of wisdom; and a small store of the latter is worth vastly more than any stock of the former

Samuel Smiles (1812-1904)

Samuel Smiles

I have a theory that the best ads come from personal experience. Some of the good ones I have done have really come out of the real experience of my life, and somehow this has come over as true and valid and persuasive.

David Ogilvy (1911-1999)

The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel; / To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding; / To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity; / To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.

The bigger the real-life problems, the greater the tendency for the discipline to retreat into a reassuring fantasy-land of abstract theory and technical manipulation.

Applying what they know, they are gaining real life experience which is way different than in theory.

I think Ron learned a lot from his experience at Florida. I'm not a big rules guy, but there are things about discipline, structure and academic standards that you have to have straight from the start. Ron knows how Illinois works, and it's never the coach that changes the coach but the school that changes the coach.

Life is the only real counselor; wisdom unfiltered through personal experience does not become a part of the moral tissue.

I chose Sony Classics, not just because of their practical experience, not just because of their wisdom in marketing, but mainly because of their integrity.

Arthur Cohn (1910-)

What we'd discovered is she is mature far beyond her years. She's traveled her whole life and has a worldview. We learned she has great drive and discipline. We learned she was kind of fearless.

Pacifism is a wonderful conviction in theory, but only in theory. Real life has a way of eventually rubbing even the most altruistic nose in a steaming pile of "F**k that".

My past is my wisdom to use today. . . my future is my wisdom yet to experience. Be in the present because that is where life resides.

Gene Oliver (1935-)

Universities by their very nature encourage debate, question and challenge of conventional wisdom and existing theories. We are places where knowledge is discovered. We advance existing precepts and understandings by which society currently runs. And in that context, academic staff will time to time have views that are different from the government's.
