“It is a great advantage to
be wise. Wisdom is different from mere knowledge of the facts. Some very wise
people have little formal education. And some very educated people, who know
many facts, are not wise. Wisdom is the
insight and sense of how to live in a way that accomplishes the goals for which
we were made: the glory of God and the good of man. And since glorifying
God involves delighting in God, and the good of man involves sharing our joy in
God, therefore wisdom is the only path to deep and lasting joy.” -- John Piper in When I Don’t Desire God: How to Fight for
Joy
