      Knowledge is knowing it’s a one way street. Wisdom is still looking both ways to check for crazies going the wrong way.

        Knowledge is knowing that tomatoes are a fruit. Wisdom is not using it in fruit salad.

          Enlightenment is doing it anyway because you like tomatoes.

          !Cherry tomatoes are juicy and sweet, and are totally fine in a fruit salad!<

            If anyone ever gives me a fruit salad with cherry tomatoes in it, I’m immediately going to go check their freezer for body parts.

      Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.

      Within the image, realizing that everything is connected seems to be knowledge, and realizing the specific method of connection seems to be wisdom. Realistically, intelligence is knowing a tomato is a fruit, but wisdom is knowing a tomato-based fruit salad is salsa.
