"人的智慧不在于他们的经历而在于他们的体验能力"

George Bernard Shaw

Simplified Meaning:

People become wise not just because of what they go through in life, but because of how well they can learn and grow from their experiences. For example, imagine two friends who both travel to a new country. One friend tries new foods, talks to local people, and learns new traditions. The other friend sticks to familiar places and routines. Even though both have the same travel experience, the first friend becomes wiser because they engaged more openly with what they encountered. This means that wisdom comes from the ability to absorb, think about, and understand different situations deeply. It's not just about having lots of experiences but about using those experiences to learn important lessons. If you want to become wiser, you should try to be open-minded, curious, and willing to reflect on what you experience. This approach will help you grow and understand the world better, even if your experiences aren't always grand or numerous.
