MAKE IT SO


“Wisdom is the highest aim of life and of higher education.”—Copthorne Macdonald

“Wisdom is the realization of what is of highest value to oneself and others.”—Nicholas Maxwell

If wisdom is the highest aim of life,

and wisdom is realizing what is of highest value,

then we shall be wise to the extent that we determine what is of highest value and bring it into being, making it so.

Wisdom is as wisdom does.

What, then, is of highest value to yourself and others?
