Will Durant said this quote

Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life.

~ Will Durant

And last are the few whose delight is in meditation and understanding; who yearn not for goods, nor for victory, but for knowledge; who leave both market and battlefield to lose themselves in the quiet clarity of secluded thought; whose will is a light rather than a fire, whose haven is not power but truth: these are the men of wisdom, who stand aside unused by the world.

~ Will Durant

Civilization exists by geological consent, subject to change without notice.

~ Will Durant

So the story of man runs in a dreary circle, because he is not yet master of the earth that holds him.

~ Will Durant
