The Road to Character by David Brooks
3.0

Brooks shares the story of several historical figures that embody various qualities: dignity, love, self-mastery, etc.

“We can be knowledgeable with other men’s knowledge, but we can’t be wise with other men’s wisdom... That’s because wisdom isn’t a body of information. It’s the moral quality of knowing what you don’t know and figuring out a way to handle your ignorance, uncertainty, and limitation.”
