In the book
Einstein drew the line in a single stroke: a clever person solves a problem, but a wise person avoids it. You do not receive wisdom as a gift handed down — you must discover it for yourself, after a journey no one else can take for you; that is why its beginning is humility, and why in the end it is not study but practice that is the main thing. And the third part of the plan is the one no one volunteers for: risk, the fare you pay for going anywhere worth going. — The Flight Plan (Purpose/Wisdom/Risk)
