Quote by Leo Stein

The wise man questions the wisdom of others because he questions his own, the foolish man, because it is different from his own.


The wise man questions the wisdom of others because he quest

Summary

This quote highlights the contrast between a wise person and a foolish one in how they interact with the wisdom of others. The wise individual is humble and reflective, constantly interrogating their own knowledge and beliefs. They also question the wisdom of others in a similar fashion, seeking to broaden their understanding. On the other hand, the foolish person lacks such introspection and instead dismisses the wisdom of others solely because it differs from their own limited worldview. In essence, the quote suggests that wisdom lies in being open-minded and continuously reevaluating one's own perspectives.
