"Pessimism is only the name that men of weak nerves give to wisdom." ― Bernard De Voto Topic(s): Wisdom More In Wisdom "After the knowledge of, and obedience to, the will of God, the next aim must be to know something of His attributes of wisdom, power, and goodness as evidenced by His handiwork."― James Prescott Joule "To suppose more than one supreme Source of infinite wisdom, power, and all perfections, is to assert that there is no supreme Being in existence."― Adam Clarke "I continue to believe, contrary to the given wisdom, that it’s more interesting to have an album – or, indeed, an individual song – which has variety rather than homogeneity."― Peter Hammill
