Question:Kindness is one of the most important, if not the most important , manifestation of wisdom.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Kindness is one of the most important, if not the most important , manifestation of wisdom.

important is too subjective. be specific

they're both equally important--and in a city like the one I live in they are both equally useless.

Some would say that wisdom is the best of all. King Solomon was asked by God what he wished for as king. He could have anything on earth, but he asked for wisdom. Because he was so selfless and caring, God made him the richest man on earth. Therefore, I would say that wisdom is primary. Also, not every situation calls for kindness, but wisdom applies in every situation.

Without kindness, what will be the motive to use wisdom selflessly? If your kindness lacks wisdom, at worst you will be kind to everyone--deserving and undeserving. I'll choose kindness.

WISDOM

Kindness implies wisdom in its most finest form.

they're both very important.. but in this time I'd say more on wisdom.. just a little bit. you just have to be more practical nowadays right ?

Kindness.

Your take Boss. It's the Boss's day out!! Remember, the boss is right no matter what, and I am wrong, wrang, allways!!!! Saarry far tha gramatical error!!!!

They share top billing

Kindness is a result of wisdom.

without wisdom, people will take advantage your kindness

Neither. Wisdom on it's own isn't enough, but it takes wisdom to know when you're actually being kind. Sometimes, kindness is about what you do now, and sometimes it's about the end result in the long term. For example. kindness would indicate not breaking up with your significant other. But if you're just not right for each other, wisdom tells us that it's kinder in the long run to break up - even though it may seem cruel at the time.
