“There is a tendency to mistake data for wisdom, just as there has always been a tendency to confuse logic with values, intelligence with insight. Unobstructed access to facts can produce unlimited good only if it is matched by the desire and ability to find out what they mean and where they lead.” Norman Cousins 

Hopefully, in the expansive froth of the world wide web, you will find some clarity and wisdom here.

artes serviunt vitae; sapientia imperat 

The arts are the servants of life; wisdom is it’s master. 

Cicero

Only quotes that can be well sourced have been selected for this library.  Since there are limits to the amount of time that I can spend on this project, sometimes the quote sourcing will indicate that disputes exist as to authorship.  In those cases the dispute will be detailed.  Outside of Wikiquote, this is one of the most completely sourced collections of quotes on the web.  Happy reading.
