It is rather curious statement. I think it is quite legitimate. After all, the wisest decision cannot always come to our mind at once. Sometimes you need to think which act will be reasonable.

This quote makes a clear distinction between intelligence and wisdom. It suggests that intelligence is the ability to quickly understand or grasp concepts, while wisdom involves the thoughtful application of that understanding to make sound decisions. In essence, intelligence is about comprehension, but wisdom is about the effective and prudent use of that knowledge in real-life situations. It’s a great reminder that being smart doesn’t necessarily equate to making wise choices; the two skills must work together for true success.
