"La ciencia es conocimiento organizado, la sabiduría es vida organizada."

Immanuel Kant

Simplified Meaning:

Science is all about collecting and understanding facts, like how plants grow or how gravity works. It's structured and based on experiments and evidence. Think of it like a library where all the knowledge about the world is neatly put into categories. For instance, doctors use scientific knowledge to treat illnesses because they study how the body works. Wisdom, on the other hand, is about living life in a thoughtful and meaningful way. It’s like using lessons learned from experiences to make good decisions. For example, an elderly person who has seen a lot in life might give you advice based on what they’ve been through. They don’t just know things; they understand how to live well. Applying this to your life, it's helpful to learn and understand facts through studying or research (that's science), but equally important is to know how to use that knowledge to live a happy and fulfilling life (that's wisdom). It's the difference between knowing something and knowing how to use that knowledge wisely.
