Who Do You Think Is The Wisest Famous Person Of Our Time And Why?

[Nameless14]

Apart from people famous for their brains like scientists, people making new discoveries etc.

[ummmm]

People only appear wise if you agree with their opinions.

Pat Condell. He cuts through political BS like a hot knife through butter.

[spathiphyllum]

Anyone even interested in politics i wouldn't class as "wise" at all.

[spathiphyllum]

They'd be wise enough to see it for the game that it is, and be too above it o even join in with a theory about the situation.

Even still. A wise man knows that he knows nothing.

[Spicerack]

Go on, Prudie. You won't embarrass me.

Enoch Powell. Like him or abhor him, he predicted what would happen to the UK with unreserved immigration, and everything he said has just about come true.

So you don't want scientists or any inventors as such. One name springs immediately to mind, as much as i cannot stand the man. Simon Cowell. From a rather egotistical Blind Date contestant to being worth almost £450M and all he basically did was to take karaoke on to our tv sets! How wise is that?

Rivers of blood and the 'black man having the whip hand"?

A serious contender must be Bertrand Russell for all the reasons stated in the link:-

Mrs Khandro, she's never wrong

SAndy he actually never mentioned Rivers of Blood in that context.

"he expression "rivers of blood" did not appear in the speech but is an allusion to a line from Virgil's Aeneid which he quoted: "as I look ahead, I am filled with foreboding; like the Roman, I seem to see 'the River Tiber foaming with much blood'."[1]"

Also I believe the black man now does have the whip hand in the UK. White people struggle to do or say anything without being accused of Racial Discrimination.

The wisest probably ensure that they avoid fame.
