This is where a person's individual nature determines how they are affected by their experiences . . .
Reminds me of a quote: (I'll tell you the quote tomorrow when I get to work lol . . .)
Anyway, for some people knowledge is like a unique pair of glasses. It gives them clarity of thought, and an acute view of that which is overlooked by the unenlightened. Knowledge can allow a person to be objective because they know that nothing in life is concrete . . . or it could make them subjective, under the assumption that they know more than their counterparts, and hence are unwilling to swerve from even their most shallow convictions.
Interestingly enough I would have to agree that experience is the greatest purveyor of wisdom . . . I could go on forever . . .
