Cleverness

"Cleverness is not wisdom."
Euripides

Just because you're clever, quick-thinking and believe that you're smarter than everyone around you, it doesn't make you wise. Every teenager can claim those qualities, and yet teens have so, so much to learn.
Age and experience, leavened with plenty of mistakes, along with a willingness to learn -- now that makes you wise.
Eventually.
