    It’s often repeated, but I love the distinction between knowledge and wisdom based on this fact.

    Knowledge is to know tomato is a fruit; wisdom is to not put it in a fruit salad.

      I saw a variation on this once that added something else as “knowing how to make a tomato-using fruit salad taste good” or somesuch, but I forget what trait they assigned that to.
