It’s an old one but it still makes me smile……. Regarding the difference between wisdom and knowledge…….
Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.

Pettit From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Doug Powell Sent: Tuesday, January 03, 2012 10:44 AM To: EMC-PSTC Subject: Experts and Wisdom All, With some folks retiring and others I know are changing careers (recently termed “retooling”), I had some pensive thoughts about losing many folks who are experts in the field or those with great wisdom. So it occurs to me, I would like to hear your favorite quotes on Wisdom and Experts. I’ll prime the pump with a few I know. * Wisdom is the “stuff” you get immediately after you need it most. * An expert is one who has already made all of the necessary mistakes. * ex·pert/ˈekspərt/ Noun: compound word “ex + spurt”. EX meaning “has been”, SPURT meaning a “drip under pressure”, therefore a “Has been drip under pressure!” thanks, –doug Douglas E Powell Independent Compliance Engineering [email protected] http://www.linkedin.com/in/dougp01 - ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
