Wisdom is supreme – so acquire wisdom, and whatever you acquire, acquire understanding!

Acquire wisdom, acquire understanding; do not forget and do not turn aside from the words I speak.

The one who acquires wisdom loves himself; the one who preserves understanding will prosper.

Acquire truth and do not sell it – wisdom, and discipline, and understanding.

Like a bird that wanders from its nest, so is a person who wanders from his home.

How much better it is to acquire wisdom than gold; to acquire understanding is more desirable than silver.
