It is good even for old men to learn wisdom.
Aeschylus
There are times when fear is good. It must keep its watchful place at the heart's controls. There is advantage in the wisdom won from pain.

Memory is the mother of all wisdom

He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.

Wisdom comes through suffering. Trouble, with its memories of pain, Drips in our hearts as we try to sleep, So men against their will Learn to practice moderation. Favours come to us from gods.
