A wise man changes his mind, a fool never.
-Spanish Proverb

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn. You cannot build character and courage by taking away initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could do for themselves.
-Abraham Lincoln

The scriptures teach that “great men are not always wise.” Spiritually you may “know not and know not that you know not,” and be “ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Your spirit learns in a different way than does your intellect. For “there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding,” and the Spirit of Christ “giveth light to every man that cometh into the world.” (see Job 32:9, 2 Tim. 3:7, Job 32:8 and D&C 84:46) (Ensign, November 1994)

One may have many talents and knowledge but never acquire wisdom because he does not learn to be compassionate with his fellow man. (Ensign, November 1988)
-Marvin J. Ashton

To be a philosopher is to recognize the True, to desire the Beautiful, to establish the Good. This is wisdom; all else is folly.
-George Santayana

When you're through changing, you're through.
