The difference between knowledge and wisdom.

  1. Knowledge is inactive.

    Wisdom is active.

    :hippie:
     
  2. Knowledge is what you have intellectually acquired.
    Wisdom is what you do with that knowledge.
     
  3. knowledge is like a bucket of kfc chicken

    wisdom is eating it
     
  4. Quite a bit better. Knowledge is not just something I cram into my head to pass tests. It is information and understanding from learning or experience. Wisdom is not only knowing how to use knowledge, but also how to create or infer knowledge; insight.

    The fact of activity is making some mysterious point I probably don't agree with.
     
  5. You used too many words.

    But you are right.

    :smoke:
     
  6. Yeah it was redundant, but expressed my agreement, right? :)
     

  7. wisdom is few words. agreeable? :devious:

    wisdom is a few words because knowledge is much words.

    the knowledgeable may not be wise but the wise are knowledgeable.
     
  8. Knowledge is something you acquire and hope to remember - wisdom is something you gain through experience.
     
  9. lol they made this point on the golden girls last night.
    sophia said that dorothy had knowledge but that she had wisdom and that y everyone came to her with their problems. ahhh the golden girls, is there anything we can't learn from them?

    apparently tv is worth watching... or was
     
  11. Knowledge gives you bonuses to your skill points pr level, and you get more spells if you're a mage

    Wisdom gives you bonuses to your Will saves, and druids get more spells pr day

    duh, you fucking losers

    duhhh
     

  12. so knowledge and wisdom are the same things then, kk
    '
     
  13. Is acquiring something equal to using it in your reality?
     

  14. what game?
     

  15. you cant ''use'' wisdom, and if you can use it, then it would be equal to your definition of knowledge
     
  16. Knowledge is information and skills acquired through experience or education; the theoretical or practical understanding of a subject.

    Wisdom is the quality of having experience, knowledge, and good judgment; the quality of being wise.
     
  17. Knowledge is facts.

    Wisdom is experience.
     
  18. Why can't you "use" wisdom?
    I can give you an example of how I use wisdom
     
  19. how do you use wisdom
     
  20. knowledge speaks, wisdom listens.
