Full Description


From the cradle to the grave, wisdom - of our lack of it - influences our daily lives, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. It's easy to feel lost when setting out on the path to wisdom, but don't feel alone - since time began people, in the same situation, have left us their experiences, thoughts and advice. Collected in these pages are no fewer than 1000 thought-provoking, sometimes amusing, sometimes cryptic, and always wise thoughts distilled from many voices and minds over the centuries. Hopefully these offerings will start you on the path to wisdom. One thing is certain, we will all come out of it a bit wiser.
