From the cradle, children are introduced to wisdom, giving it the image of a fancy grandfather with a mustache, looking like an old man from whom the answers to all questions are not hidden. From his lips come wise sayings that are not immediately understandable, but very deep. This is the image that fairy tales paint, and probably everyone had a similar idea in childhood. And this is not surprising, because wisdom is often associated with age and experience with which it comes. Let's look at an interesting story about an old man.
The Parable of the Old Wise Man and the Wanderers
In one area there lived a sage who loved to spend time near the gates of the city, where its inhabitants came to ask for advice. In those days, it was customary to turn to sages who solved riddles.
One day a small group of people approached this city. The one who was in front turned to the elder: “Sage, you live in this city and have great experience. Please tell me what kind of people live in this city: good or bad?” The penetrating gaze of the gray-haired man studied the travelers for some time, after which he asked: “What kind of people have you met before?” Then the man, without thinking twice, began to list: “ Evil, cruel, proud, arrogant..." The sage did not allow the thought to finish, saying: "Then you have nothing to do in our city, since the same people live here." Hearing these words, the procession moved on.
After some time, other people came to the same city. Their clothes and appearance very different from the previous group of travelers. The sage called to the wanderers: “What are you looking for, strangers?” The answer followed: “We want to find a city where we could find friends and comfort.” Then the sage asked them the same question: “What kind of people have you met in other cities?” One of the men, the one who was in charge, answered: “Kind, loving, sympathetic...” Then the old man’s face lit up with a smile: “Welcome to our city! Here you will find such people.”
great people
People have always strived for wisdom. The sayings of wise people speak about this. And you most likely liked the parable that told about the wanderers and the sage. Were you able to learn a lesson from this fictional story? As one man said two thousand years ago: “The righteousness of wisdom is demonstrated by its works.”
Anyone can be wise, regardless of age. However, wisdom cannot be found in philosophy, which tries to get to the truth through speculation and fabrication. True wisdom is rather practical and amenable to logical perception. Throughout the history of mankind, many people have lived on earth who, based on life experience, made interesting conclusions. Let's look at just some of the wise sayings of great people. One of those who reflected on wisdom and its importance was King Solomon.
The Wisdom of King Solomon
Here are some of famous sayings the wisest and greatest king of Israel - Solomon, which can be found in the Book of Proverbs:
- “Happy is the one who discovers wisdom, and the person who acquires insight, for to gain wisdom is better than to gather up silver, and the profit from it is greater than that of gold.”
- "Never be wise in your own eyes."
- "My son, take care of your practical wisdom and your thinking abilities. If you do this, then they will be life to you and like jewelry around your neck."
They say that this prudent king ancient people possessed wisdom given to him by God himself. The Biblical Book of Proverbs contains dozens of wise thoughts expressed by him. However, even some of the sayings given above reveal to us the value of the spiritual in comparison with the material.
L. N. Tolstoy
L.N. Tolstoy became popular not only due to his writing talent, but also because he skillfully revealed human psychology, discussing relationships between people. He once wrote: “If you do something, do it well. If you cannot or do not want to do it well, it is better not to do it at all.” This thought perfectly reflects those who are accustomed to doing many things superficially.
The sayings of wise people and reflection on them show that those who are able to speak wisdom are excellent psychologists. And who better than the author of an aphorism can understand the true purpose of what he puts into practice?
Other sayings about knowledge and understanding
“The ignoramus who is ignorant of wisdom is wiser than the sage who hungers for ignorance.”
(William Shakespeare).
“Only one deity can possess comprehensive wisdom, and man can only strive for it” (Pythagoras).
"All philosophers are wise in their maxims and fools in their behavior"
“Only that mind is a real mind that proves its worth in the act of cognition, and only that eye that really sees is a real eye” (F. Engels).
“Wisdom in all everyday affairs, it seems to me, consists not in knowing what to do, but in knowing what to do before and what after” (L.N. Tolstoy).
However, there is one point that should be taken into account when searching for the wise sayings of the great in various sources. This will be useful to know. It must be remembered that wise sayings do not always belong to those to whom they are usually attributed. In order not to be misled, it is necessary to check the authorship of certain words using authoritative sources and reference books.
Balance is the main requirement of wisdom
In this article we were able to consider only rare grains of true wisdom. Other poems, parables, wise sayings and riddles can be found in the autobiographies and writings that have been left to us as legacies. The main thing is to show balance, because, as one once said smart man: “There will be no end to the compilation of a huge number of books.” All of them are vivid evidence not only of the magnitude of human wisdom, but also of human error in great abundance. It's better to stay good person always and everywhere, and “to treat people as we would like to be treated.”
So many words were said by wise people about love, about the relationships of like-minded people; philosophical debates flared up and died out on this topic for many centuries, leaving behind only the most truthful and apt statements about life. They have survived to this day, perhaps many sayings about happiness and how beautiful love is, have undergone some changes, however, they are still filled deep meaning.
