I think there is wisdom and most if not all wisdom is timeless and has been "known" for many generations. As I learn I give voice to my understanding and perhaps become a teacher of what I believe to another.

I do not believe that I have discovered anything that has not been known before by others. It is only new to me.

Einstein and John are correct.
