A wise person is wise because he trusts his own being.

Sometimes you can tell a wise person not only by what he says but also by what he doesn't say. Remember, it is much better to say little than to say too much and regret it later.

I never dreamed that the little ditties I wrote about annoying customers or bagel recipes would turn into a full-length musical comedy. But a very wise person told me to 'write what you know'. So I did.

I will say this: I know no wise person who doesn't read a lot. I suspect that you can read on the computer now and get a lot of benefit out of it, but I doubt that it'll work as well as reading print worked for me.

A wise person should have money in their head, but not in their heart.

A wise person does at once, what a fool does at last. Both do the same thing; only at different times.

A wise person does not undertake any business with the risk of losing the capital money in search of making a profit.

If I meet a wise person, I think, 'Yes, tell me more about parenting, about marriage, about how to stay in love. Tell me more about how to be a decent person living in a world that's filled with chaos.'

I had a very wise person tell me that he thinks marriage, when you're younger, you keep thinking you can fix things. That's what people do. And you can't really fix anything. It shouldn't be a massive difficult thing every day. Life's difficult enough.

Being a good person begins with being a wise person. Then, when you follow your conscience, will you be headed in the right direction.

The wise person often shuns society for fear of being bored.

A wise person decides slowly but abides by these decisions.

You're a wise person if you can easily direct your attention to what ever needs it.

The mark of a wise person isn't never making mistakes - everyone makes plenty of them. Rather, it's the ability to quickly admit - and fix - them!

Wise leaders generally have wise counselors because it takes a wise person themselves to distinguish them.
