《智慧书》摘录：

性格与聪明乃发挥人之天赋资源的两个依托 　　凡欲使其天赋得到自然发挥者，须使其才华依托其性格与聪明二者。若只依靠其中一个，则只能获得一半的成功。光靠聪明成不了大事，你还得有一个适合你的聪明性格才成。愚人之所以失败，在于其行事不顾及自身的具体条件、地位，出身及朋友关系。 神秘就是靠其神秘性来赢得敬重的。即使你必须道出真相，也最好避免什么都和盘托出。不要让人人把你里里外外都一览无余。 有识尚需有胆方可成伟业 真正的聪明人宁愿人们需要他，而不是让人们感谢他。有礼貌的希求心理比世俗的感谢更有价值，因为心有所求，便能铭心不忘，而感谢之辞无非促人忘却。与其别人对你彬彬有礼，不如别人对你有依赖之心。 凡臻善臻美者总是言语明智、行为谨慎、小心翼翼的，上流社会总是愿与之结交，乐与之为伍。 当领导的总是要显示出在一切重大的事情上都比其他人高明。君王喜欢有人辅佐，却不喜欢被人超过。如果你想向某人提出忠告，你应该显得你只是在提醒他某种他本来就知道不过偶然忘掉的东西，而不是某种要靠你解谜释惑才能明白的东西，此中奥妙亦可从天上群星的情况悟得：尽管星星都有光明，却不敢比太阳更亮。 人的最高精神素质是不受一时冲动的情绪所摆布 　　用你的自尊使你免受庸俗、转瞬即逝的印象之左右。没有一种胜利比战胜自己及自己的冲动情绪更伟大：因为这是一种意志的胜利。即使当激情影响你的时候，也不要让它影响你的地位，特别是当你的地位对你很重要时。这是避免麻烦的明智之途，也是获得他人尊重的捷径。 察微知著自有其方 　　懂得如何推理，曾一度被视为一切技艺的顶峰。但现在光能推理还不够，我们还须有未卜先知的本领，特别对于我们容易受骗的事情来说是如此。你只有学会察微知著才能成为聪明人。有的人极善于窥测他人内心，对别人的意图洞若观火。对我们最重要的内情，谨慎之人虽然自己十分清楚，却总是说一半留一半 有的人重名，有...
