Fools despise Wisdom and Discipline. These are two of the most valuable things that we can have in life, Wisdom and Discipline. We are not born with Wisdom but we gather it in through our experiences of Life. We should listen to people that we respect as being wise and we should learn from them. Discipline is something that is fast becoming a forgotten virtue. Many families and institutions struggle because of a lack of Discipline. Restoration of Discipline through the Church is very important.
