Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers, and I linger on the shore, And the individual withers, and the world is more and more.

Alfred Lord Tennyson

1842 Poems,'Locksley Hall', l.141-2.
Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers, and I linger on the shore, And the individual withers, and the world is more and more.
