The road to wisdom? — Well, it's plain
and simple to express:
Err
and err
and err again
but less
and less
and less.

The Road to Wisdom?Piet Hein
Jailer: You understand my position, sir, there's nothing I can do; I'm a plain, simple man and just want to keep out of trouble.
More: Oh, Sweet Jesus! These plain, simple men!Robert Bolt
If any ambitious man have a fancy to revolutionize at one effort the universal world of human thought, human opinion, and human sentiment, the opportunity is his own — the road to immortal renown lies straight, open, and unencumbered before him. All that he has to do is to write and publish a very little book. Its title should be simple — a few plain words — "My Heart Laid Bare." But — this little book must be true to its title.
Edgar Allan Poe
It is only a plain tale of plain people told in the plain dialect of a plain old woman.
Eliza Calvert Hall
No single one can possess greater wisdom than the many scholars who are elected by all the men for their wisdom. Yet we can. We do. We have fought against saying it, but now it is said. We do not care. We forget all men, all laws and all things save our metals and our wires. So much is still to be learned! So long a road lies before us, and what care we if we must travel it alone!
Ayn Rand
What a wise man knows seems so plain and simple to himself that he easily makes the mistake of thinking it to be so for others.
