الحكمة هي الاستخدام الصحيح للمعرفة. لنعرف أنه ليس من الحكمة. كثير من الرجال يعرفون الكثير ، وهم جميع الحمقى الأكبر لذلك. لا يوجد أحمق حتى أحمق كبير باعتباره أحمق يعرف. لكن معرفة كيفية استخدام المعرفة هو الحصول على الحكمة.

la sagesse est le bon usage de la connaissance. savoir, ce n'est pas être sage. beaucoup d'hommes savent beaucoup de choses et en sont tous les plus fous. il n'y a pas de fou aussi grand qu'un fou qui connaisse. mais savoir utiliser la connaissance, c'est avoir de la sagesse.
