  1. Wisdom makes a man blessed, happy, stronger. It is the goal for man's life, thus in that sense, the statement is true. I guess you have to defend the quote.  You could use other quotes (see below) to link it, and also talk about the components of wisdom (data, information, knowledge, understanding, wisdom).

    "Thought makes man wise. Wisdom makes life endurable."  John Patrick

    "Happy Is the Man That Findeth Wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding." King James Bible

    "Wisdom strengthens a wise man more than ten rulers who are in a city." Ecclesiastes 7:19

    You could talk about Knowledge and Wisdom - for example, mere knowledge does not make some one a wise man/woman. Wisdom is thus more than knowledge (which is more than information). Wisdom is the application of the knowledge or the proper use of knowledge. You could use some proverbs, quotes etc to illustrate your point.

    You could talk about what makes knowledge and leads to wisdom. At the lowest level is data (e.g. population of a country, number of males and females, area of the country, number of doctors per unit of population, number of hospitals per geographical unit, etc. etc.).  These figures do not in themselves mean anything. But if you collect some data for New York City and organize it you have information about the City. Thus you may be able to say New York City has a population of 8 million of whom 36% of them are foreign born and approx. 50% of these foreign born people are in Queens.  Now, you could do a lot with this information in terms of providing educational, business or other services within the City. Thus you collected the data (facts and figures), organized it to make it information that you could use, and now you understand the information and identify when and how to use the information, you have knowledge.  When you apply the knowledge, you will learn something (maybe new) based on your experience and the results and use the new knowledge again (you have gained wisdom in that area, one could say)...
