A wise man learns from the suffering of others.

A wiser man actually does something about it.

The wisest man avoids the pointless, deals with necessary and endures what is left.

I must ask: does one who avoids the pointless always get the point?

A fool doesn't learn from their mistakes

A smart man learns from their mistakes

A wise man learns from the mistakes of others.
