Quote on Wisdom by John Burroughs
Previous Quote
"When a herd of cattle see a strange object, they are not satisfied till each one has sniffed it; and the horse is cured of his fright at the robe, or the meal-bag, or other object, as soon as he can be induced to smell it. There is a great deal of speculation in the eye of an animal, but very little science."
Next Quote
"Without the emotion of the beautiful, the sublime, the mysterious, there is no art, no religion, no literature."

"Wisdom cannot come by railroad or automobile or aeroplane, or be hurried up by telegraph or telephone."
