The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.
By all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you’ll become happy; if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher.
I know that I am intelligent, because I know that I know nothing.
He is richest who is content with the least, for content is the wealth of nature.
Be as you wish to seem.

Happy Wednesday, all!
Until next time…

Thank you for finding these wonderful wise paradoxes and the chuckle about how a man becomes a philosopher.

This one is so awesome it made me laugh: “By all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you’ll become happy; if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher.”
