Wisdom Quote by Andy Andrews — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Remember, young man, experience is not the best teacher. Other people's experience is the best teacher. By reading about the lives of great people, you can unlock the secrets to what made them great.”

“It’s obvious you kids are smart-school and good teachers will do that for you-but wisdom is something altogether different. Wisdom can be gathered in your downtime. Wisdom that can change the very course of your life will come from the people you are around, the books you read, and the things you listen to or watch on radio or television.”

“Remember, whatever you focus upon, increases...When you focus on the things you need, you'll find those needs increasing. If you concentrate your thoughts on what you don't have, you will soon be concentrating on other things that you had forgotten you don't have-and feel worse! If you set your mind on loss, you are more likely to lose...But a grateful perspective brings happiness and abundance into a person's life.”

“One way to define wisdom is the ability to see, into the future, the consequences of your choices in the present. That ability can give you a completely different perspective on what the future might look like.”

“While it is true that most people never see or understand the difference they make, or sometimes only imagine their actions having a tiny effect, every single action a person takes has far-reaching consequences.”

“It does not take much to make us realize what fools we are, but the little it takes is long in coming.”

“You see, to find the brightest wisdom one must pass through the darkest zones. And through the darkest zones there can be no guide.”

“Love should make you more of who you are, not less. If it makes you less, it's not love. It's dependency. And dependency is dangerous.”

“Wisdom will teach you how to walk out of mountains you were never meant to climb, so that you can focus on the ones destined for your life.”

“A problem well put is half solved.”

“To hide feelings when you are near crying is the secret of dignity.”
