Wisdom has been defined as crystallized pain. It is the distilled essence of experience: ofpain and pleasure, sorry and joy, darkness and light.
Even in our sleep Pain, which cannot forget Falls drop by drop Upon the human heart. Until, against our will, We come to wisdom Through the strength of God.
