Thought For the Day: Wisdom Frames Knowledge Into Being Useful

“Wisdom is the central form which gives meaning and position to all the facts which are acquired by knowledge, the digestion and assimilation of whatever in the material world the man comes in contact with.”  – Northrop Frye, in Fearful Symmetry: A Study of William Blake

Although on a cursory look, I find some things that I disagree with Frye on, disagreement is vital to human understanding and open discussion.  Because of this, I offer the following site that I found that illuminates this man’s life and works.  If nothing else, it is an interesting look at another way of seeing thing in some ways differently.  Understanding other perspectives is illuminating in that it opens eyes to things otherwise possibly unseen and in expanding dialog through this while sharpening one’s own innate arguments and theories on how the world operates.
