Wisdom: Fishing For Men Catch-22

Knowing of evil and doing evil are two different things Knowledge applied with the right judgment is wisdom Cutting teeth on forbidden fruit is one thing transiently eating from the same tree Ignorance of the law is no excuse nor is the knowledge of the law It will not make you any wiser or add another day to your life wisdom of this world is foolishness to God catching men in their own craftiness be not wise in your own eyes no man can keep his own soul alive Hold that in mind as long as you can
