Over the next few weeks I’ll share some thoughts about ‘wisdom’. Wisdom is needed in order to deal with all the problems in our lives, both personal and international.

The poet T S Eliot in his ‘Four Quartets’ was either critical or sceptical about the wisdom of old age and wrote:

“The only wisdom we can hope to acquire
Is the wisdom of humility: humility is endless.”
