WISDOM
Genius isn’t omniscience.
It’s just spending more time on a problem than anyone has before.
And spending that time standing on the shoulders of others.
Omniscience is for the gods.
Men are mortal, and reason is frail.
And we are almost always proven by later men, to be fools.
We can never know. We can only try.
And observe what succeeds or fails.
This is the meaning of wisdom.
And humility and skepticism are it’s products
