Quotes:
"We are but men, frail, feeble, and apt to faint" ~ Charles Spurgeon
"Wisdom is the right use of knowledge. To know is not to be wise. Many men know a great deal and are all the greater fools for it. There is no fool so great a fool as a knowing fool. But to know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom." ~ Charles Spurgeon
