    Knowledge and Wisdom Knowledge - and wisdom. Sometimes we have all we need of one‚ but not enough of the other. And often‚ too often‚ we don’t know the difference. Often‚ too often‚ we mistake knowledge‚ the accumulation of facts‚ for wisdom‚ the ability to make the right choices in life. To succeed as individuals‚ and as a nation‚ we need to know how to put what we know to proper use. Perhaps this is why our system of education so often fails. Children are fed facts‚ lots of facts‚ without

    Socratic Wisdom

    Socratic Wisdom In the Apology‚ the oracle at Delphi stated that Socrates was the wisest man of his time (Plato 21a). Socrates‚ however‚ “[was] very conscious that [he was] not wise at all”‚ which would not make him the wisest man of his time (21b). Certainly‚ not both the oracle and Socrates could be simultaneously correct in their individual beliefs; thus‚ the oracle and Socrates must have had differing definitions of wisdom. What‚ then‚ is wisdom? Many people believe wisdom denotes having

    What Is Wisdom?

    What is wisdom? I would like to start with a quote of Socrates in which he says: „True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life‚ ourselves‚ and the world around us. „ I think wisdom is learning through experience. Like when we love someone and realize he or she is not what we wanted‚ not what we exceptet we learn what we don’t want‚ eventhough we still might not know what we want. I think all of our wisdom consists of things we know that are not good for

    Socrates is widely recognized as an ancient Greek philosopher and one of the founding fathers of Western philosophy. Despite the fact that there is no real credited work to contribute to Socrates‚ he will always be renowned for being an enigmatic figure made famous through the works of Plato and other ancient Greek philosophers. The spirit of Socrates was always that of an inquisitive‚ curious‚ yet enlightened thinker and that is the attitude he portrayed in Plato’s Euthyphro and The Apology.

    Though knowledge and wisdom may seem alike‚ they are really very different. They actually only have two things in common - they both involve the mind and both are hard to acquire. Someone who has knowledge would know that a tomato is a fruit‚ but someone who had wisdom would know not to put them in a fruit salad. Anyone can obtain knowledge about anything‚ but only some can use that knowledge and apply it in the best way.Knowledge’ is information of which someone is aware. Knowledge is also used
