Here is some wisdom to nash your teeth on ladies and gents.I just thought of this saying.

You can be as clever as you want to be, but if you aren't wise being clever won't get you out of it.

Also people who aren't wise are not that clever.

Basically they are stupid idiots.You name it that is what they are no more no less.I am not saying everyone though, just a few people.

The difference between me and them is i am clever and wise they don't have those attributes.I am sure other people are the same as me too.I could carry on all day with this stuff if i want to.

I have high hopes that Isis will be stopped one day.You mark my words.

Please share this wisdom with the people you know.Thank you.
 
I think wisdom can be an attribute of stupid people. Wisdom often comes with experience whereas knowledge (not intelligence) is something most can gain from education, be it formal or informal.

I would go as far as to say many more people exhibit wisdom from age and experience than they do knowledge, usually due to lack of correct education. I wouldn't like to say the two aren't linked in some shape or form.

As for idiots, I believe that the majority of mankind, perhaps as great as 95%, are idiots but that doesn't mean that wisdom only resides within 5% of us.

I would say that my grandfather is wise, which of course is my opinion, but with limited education he is far from knowledgeable about a great many things and doesn't possess a level of intelligence that most would deem as high.
 
I don't know that I would put the number of "stupid idiots" 95%. Especially with only opinion as to what counts as being a "stupid idiot." Everyone is a "stupid idiot" about something, but that I don't think should qualify them to be labeled as such, cause they are probably fairly competent at something else.
It's also got to be said, clever and wise add m are not mutual inclusive. Wisdom comes from experience, cleverness comes from intelligence. You can be as wise as you want and not be clever and vise versa. But again what are we using to measure these metrics?

You're absolutely right, that's why I said I believe this to be the case and didn't state it as fact.

I'm sure the number wouldn't be that high if stupidity was actually something that could be tested.

Whether something you've just thought of is wisdom or not is not up to you.


Also it isn't - it's barely coherent and the message contained within it is nonsense.

Next time just leave it as a status post. Or stick it on Twitter - Twitter loves crap like that. Or have a T-shirt made of it.
