You Grow in Wisdom, but You Don't Need More Wisdom

Being wise is not a static position. You grow in wisdom, but then you have to keep growing in wisdom. No one is as wise as they could be. Not even some one as old as me. We're not as wise as we could be. If you stop studying the scriptures, if you stop looking at wisdom, not only are you not going to grow. I've seen a lot of old men do a lot of foolish things because they departed from their dependence upon the scriptures. So many young people, you don't want to hear. Your father and your mother and society'll basically tell you, if some one's old, they don't have any wisdom. All true wisdom
