What's the difference between wise and smart?

Wise come with the experience and knowledge
Smart (Intelligence) u birth with that..no one can teach u that...or learn about...u have or not

Smart is having knowledge, wisdom is knowing what do do with it.

I believe Smart is when you read books, and can contain information. it's more logic then anything
To me Wise is more like you have life experience and inner knowledge on how to give advice

Everything that can be counted does not necessarily count; everything that counts cannot necessarily be counted. - Albert Einstein

- One who holds great power over mankind controls the world,
But one who holds great power over one's self controls the universe -

- To have knowledge, makes one intelligent.
But to be wise, one must know how to use that knowledge to benefit all -

- With age comes wisdom, and with wisdom comes beauty -

Blessings to all and,
May all be well with you ^_^

Wise is making the right decision and smart is doing what your going well whether it is right or not

wisdom comes with age

wise is deeper than just smart

You can become smart in one area of study in just a few days whereas becoming wise in the areas that matter most come with many years of experience.

A smart person may incline to talk a lot, but a wise man keep a still tongue(:

Being wise is acquired though age and is basically the ability to philosophicaly ration with the commonsenses in life. I think sometimes this leared from "trail and error", where intelligence is more of something that is inherited through genes??

experience

A smart person would look up the definition of the two words some time in their life but a wise one additionally recognizes why the differences are and aren't important, how applicable they are and how to best apply them. Something like that.

Wise experience + knowing better
smart book learning

Smart is knowing why fire is hot.
Wise is knowing not to stick your hand in the flames.

Smart comes from books. Wise comes from experience

Being smart is when you're book smart and your IQ is above average or higher.
Wisdom is the ability to utilize your knowledge correctly.
You can be smart without being wise, but you can't be wise without having some degree of intelligence.

Having knowledge is different than knowing how to use it most effectively.

Smart is obtaining information.

Wisdom is knowing how to best utilize the information that you obtain.

Anyone can be smart, but you can't be wise unless you learn that smart isn't worth squat.

Hmm...good question. Excellent question actually.
My best guess: Smart is someone who knows. Wise is someone who understands. Knowing and understanding are of course, two separate things.

Wise is knowing when not to promote how smart you are (or think you are)

That's what ninjas did!

wisdom is typically intellect while smart is intelligence, or to put another way, smart is more the result of what you would obtain from books while wisdom usually comes from experience.

wisdom is knowledge from experience. Smart is knowledge from education like math or history

You pick up wisdom with experience (hopefully) you're born either smart, stupid, or somewhere inbetween. Just because you're smart doesn't always mean you're wise.

Smart is when you have knowledge. Wise is when you know what to do with that knowledge !

Smart: knowing your way around something say you're smart on how to win a fight
if you're wise you'd just avoid it

One can be book smart, smart in social situations, etc. Wisdom is not often learned. Wisdom is an inbred sense to know what consequences actions will bring.

Wise means you know more about morals and everything. Smart means you have more knowledge in school and know more facts and math and everything.

One is dumber then the other.

Wise has to do with experience and good judgment smart pertains to intelligence or ability to interact with other people.

Smart: IQ
Wise: Experience

smart you know a lot of things wise is you know what to do with that knowledge

I find "smart" people tend to be more pretentious.

Wise seems more of philosophical trait or dealing with behaviors or real life scenarios. Smart seems to lean more towards scholastic topics... But I'm neither so don't listen to me!
