Ego is recessive in wisdom.

Summary

This quote suggests that ego and wisdom are inversely related. When wisdom is present and expressed, the ego takes a backseat. In other words, someone who possesses wisdom and knowledge tends to be humble and modest, as their focus is on seeking and sharing wisdom rather than asserting their own superiority or selfish desires. Conversely, those who have a dominant ego may lack wisdom, as their self-centeredness and arrogance hinder their ability to learn, grow, and truly understand the world around them.
