Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life. What do you think about this quote from Immanuel Kant?

From Wikipedia: Immanuel Kant was an 18th-century German philosopher. He is regarded as one of the most influential thinkers of modern Europe and of the late Enlightenment.

The Age of Enlightenment or simply The Enlightenment is a term used to describe a time in Western philosophy and cultural life centered upon the eighteenth century, in which reason was advocated as the primary source and legitimacy for authority. Developing more or less simultaneously in Germany, France, Britain, the Netherlands, and Italy, the movement spread through much of Europe.

The American Declaration of Independence and the United States Bill of Rights were motivated by “Enlightenment” principles. The intellectual and philosophical developments of that age (and their impact in moral, social, and political reform) aspired toward more freedom for common people based on self-governance, natural rights, natural law, central emphasis on liberty, individual rights, reason, common sense, and the principles of deism. These principles were a revolutionary departure from theocracy, oligarchy, aristocracy, and the divine right of kings. The Enlightenment marks a principled departure from the Middle Ages of religious authority, guild-based economic systems, and censorship of ideas toward an era of rational discourse and personal judgment, republicanism, liberalism, naturalism, scientific method, and modernity.

A good friend of mine from wis.dm (who hasn’t come over to Fluther yet) shared with me his view about this wonderful quote and it really summarizes my thoughts as well:

Science involves the methods of acquiring knowledge. Wisdom involves the art of applying that knowledge.

What are your views on the subject? I’d like engage in a thoughtful discussion.
