KNOWLEDGE

"Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; common sense is not putting it in a fruit salad." Miles Kingston - British Journalist (1964-2008)

Building a strong foundation of knowledge is of great importance in order to be well rounded. Of greater value is having and using common sense and to know what to do with what you know for the good of all. For example, knowing when not to speak is as important as having the ability to express oneself and saying too much.

Common sense is not all that common among educated minds. Be grateful for each taste of common sense that you possess; you may have to share it with those less fortunate.
