Wisdom
5 ... the LORD
appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, "Ask what I should give
you." 6And Solomon
said,...
9Give your servant therefore an understanding mind to govern your
people, able to discern between good and evil; ... "
10It pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked this.
11God said to him, "Because you ... have not
asked for yourself long life or riches, ... but have asked for yourself
understanding to discern what is right, 12 ... I give
you a wise and discerning mind;

knowledge of our own ignorance.

Wisdom
is ofttimes nearer when we stoop
Than
when we soar.

You
don't see what you're seeing until you see it,
but
when you do see it,
it
lets you see many other things.

* William Thurston of
Cornell, the author of a deeper conjecture that includes
Henri Poincaré’s and that is now apparently proved, said, “Math is really about
the human mind, about how people can think effectively, and why curiosity is
quite a good guide,” explaining that curiosity is tied in some way with
intuition. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/08/15/science/15math.html
57Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of
the Father, so whoever eats me will live because of me.
