“The wisdom of the wise and the experience of the ages are perpetuated by quotations.” Benjamin Disraeli

The theme for my Inspirational Quotes community for the month of November is “Wisdom”! This month I will include intelligent quotes, proverbs, sayings and lyrics about “Wisdom”!

My purpose for sharing these inspirational quotes with you is to encourage you and I to think about our lives in a different way,

perhaps a more positive way. By changing the way we think and

talk about our lives in this precious moment we have an opportunity

to create a more enjoyable life experience.
