Thomas Browne Quotes about Wisdom

A wise man is out of the reach of fortune.

Sir Thomas Browne (1852). “The Works of Sir Thomas Browne: Pseudodoxia epidemica, books V-VII. Religio medici. The garden of Cyprus”, p.345

Think not silence the wisdom of fools; but, if rightly timed, the honor of wise men, who have not the infirmity, but the virtue of taciturnity.

Sir Thomas Browne (1852). “The Works of Sir Thomas Browne: Urn-burial, Christian morals, Miscellanies, Correspondence, etc”, p.135
