Very instructive piece of information here. Thanks.
Re: The Differences Between Intelligence And Wisdom by Nobody: 4:35pm On Nov 18, 2021
Sorry Its a mistake I mentioned you
Re: The Differences Between Intelligence And Wisdom by Nobody: 5:02pm On Nov 18, 2021
Intelligence is bravery wisdom is cowardice,wisdom only thrives at the backyard of intelligence,intelligence is going forward wisdom is stagnation,intelligence is light wisdom is a shadow,those who are wise hold unto hope their hope lies with the intelligent who makes a way,the wisdom doesn't improve intelligence is innovation,lastly a wise man sticks to lessons an intelligent man go through lessons. Lol I had to counter this as it funny all devices used on this platform where born out of the power of curiousity which is the soul of intelligence , if the inventors followed wisdom we would still be on rotary phones thank you,so while you choose to be wise so you can grow and learn from my mistakes my success makes life better for you wiseone. Cheers.I choose to be intelligent

Intelligent man fights for his right with all his strength
A wise man knows when to give up.

An intelligent man wins all his games by diligence, focus and perseverance, a wise man just enjoy the game it doesn't matter if he lose or win.

An intelligent man strive for perfection, a wise man makes sense of his imperfection.
