Wise men arm themselves with tasteful and elegant erudition: a practical knowledge of what is going on, not of a common kind but more like an expert.They possess a copious store of wise and witty sayings, and of noble deeds, and know how to employ them on fitting occasions.More is often taught by a jest than by the most serious teaching.Pat knowledge helps some more than the seven arts, be they ever so liberal.
