- "For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength."
- ― 1 Corinthians 1:25 (Bible)
- "Suleiman-bin-Daoud was wise. He understood what the beasts said, what the birds said, what the fishes said, and what the insects said. He understood what the rocks said deep under the earth when they bowed in towards each other and groaned; and he understood what the trees said when they rustled in the middle of the morning. He understood everything, from the bishop on the bench to the hyssop on the wall."
- ― Narrator (The Butterfly That Stamped by Ruyard Kipling)

Capabilities[]
The user's intellectual faculties (memory, calculation, learning, creativity, etc.) transcend virtually all other sentient beings in their universe/verse. They can always make the wisest decision regardless of any situation and can also avoid absolutely any mistakes. This power is inferior to Omniscience as the user has essentially limitless wisdom, rather than having innate knowledge/experience of everything. The user has the greatest, most supreme understanding and realization of concepts, common sense, people, things, events or situations, resulting in the ability to apply perceptions, judgements, and actions while keeping these understandings. It often requires control of one's emotional reactions (the "passions") so that universal principles, reasons, and knowledge prevail to determine one's actions.
Wisdom is also the comprehension of what is true combined with optimum judgement as to what action to take. Great wisdom and understanding may be a quality of the user regardless of age and experience level of wisdom a being can attain.
Difference from Intelligence[]
- Intelligence is the ability to acquire and apply knowledge. It manifests itself in the ability to learn, understand, reason, solve problems and adapt to new situations.
- Wisdom is the accumulated knowledge that enables us to discern and judge what is right, true and lasting. It involves intelligence, but goes beyond that to include common sense, judgement and intuition. Wisdom enables us to make informed decisions and live a fulfilling life.
There is a wealth of a difference between the two terms. Intelligence is normally construed to be the amount of information gathered in the mind. Wisdom on the other hand is the intelligence that we gain in the process of learning from the experiences and mistakes that we commit. Therefore, through wisdom, one will not make any errors with the decision the individual takes.
