They whom truth and wisdom lead, can gather honey from a weed.

How doth the little busy bee Improve each shining hour, And gather honey all the day From every opening flower!

Wisdom is considered a sign of weakness by the powerful because a wise man can lead without power but only a powerful man can lead without wisdom.
