Yes. No. No. And yes. It will kill you like George Bush... slowly... cackling Yeehaw while firing pistols at the ground and dancing a jig. It will then go on to sexually assault your Chancellor.

The mere fact that he has been on the planet so long, makes him wise.

no, it just makes him old....relatively as i'm sure a 90 year old man would disagree. whether or not he is truly wise has nothing to do with his age.

I think it has some sort of something to do with something though.

en vino veritas!! ..........wine......Sure might not make you wise, but

Intelligence and wisdom aren't always related. Intelligence is like the sponge, and knowlege is like the water you've accumulated over time. Wisdom is how you use that water.

Man, that sucks, I want an invalid opinion as well.

Yeah. You be envious of my invalid opinion. Look how it shines and glistens in the light!

Am I the only one that has noticed that being wise is somewhat, in terms of attitude, like being humble? As in it is better to be perceived as such (through your actions people can say "he is wise" or "he is humble"😉 or claim to be trying to be such, rather then to just come out and say "I am wise" or "I am humble" - doing so lessens the validity of the claim in the eyes of people.

IMO........Wisdom could be something born with, cause many don't have it, yet can be very intelligent........odd, eh?..........intelligent people without wisdom or even common sense.

Not so wrong. In fact I would say, in stereotypical terms, an extremely smart/powerful person can be portrayed/seem less wise due to arrogance, pride and certainty in their own actions due to their great levels of intelligence/power.

Yes, it seems to me that age sometimes doesn't matter......wisdom comes in may ages..........maybe some of it is in the genes....

true, wisdom doesn't matter with age. you developed wisdom through experience of whatever you experienced in life. wisdom is a developing part of life, it takes time to even have such a small amount.

I believe (at this moment) that wisdom is in ones heart..........It's a knowing.......some can understand earlier than others............and some don't even grasp it................these type of people are more self gratifying than others, and miss out on the learning of it...............Wisdom cannot be stereo typed............It comes to different people of different ages...........It's your view on the whole perspective of life and what it encompasses that helps with wisdom....

There is no science or physics, just us. Be wise, get to know yourself.
