Famous quotes containing the word wise:
“So you finally got wise to yourself, did you? Funny thing about you women. Most of you dont get wise soon enough. You wait until youre so old nobody want you.... Youre not so hard to look at. Give yourself a tumble, youll make the grade.”

“This fellow is wise enough to play the fool,
And to do that well craves a kind of wit.
He must observe their mood on whom he jests,
The quality of persons, and the time,
Not, like the haggard, check at every feather
That comes before his eye. This is a practice
As full of labor as a wise mans art.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Its not wise to violate rules until you know how to observe them.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
