Logic is the beginning of wisdom, not the end.
My own view is that logic is the easy part, and only the beginning.
Wisdom consists more of compassion than of logic, and it's truly the hard
part. But if we are to respect and care for those whose lives we change
(as managers, consultants and teachers), we must be above all
compassionate. We may survive faults in thinking, but we cannot survive
without awareness of and sympathy toward others.
