We can be knowledgeable with other men’s knowledge, but we cannot be wise with other men’s wisdom.

Michel de Montaigne

My understanding

The difference between knowledge and wisdom :

  • Knowledge is something we can learn from books, teachers, or others. It’s facts and information that anyone can share.

  • Wisdom is different. It’s something we have to earn through our own experiences.

This quote reminds me that wisdom isn’t just about knowing. It’s about understanding, applying, and experiencing what we’ve learned in our own lives.

You can borrow knowledge, but wisdom comes only when you live it yourself.
