Wisdom comes from experience. Experience is often a result of lack of wisdom' - where is it from?

[Aleksandra]

Hello, guys! Does anybody know the source (was it interview or in the book?) of this quote that is said to belong to Terry Pratchett 'Wisdom comes from experience. Experience is often a result of lack of wisdom.' Does this quote even belong to Sir Terry Pratchett?

Welcome to the site! The quote: "
Wisdom comes from experience. Experience is often a result of lack of wisdom.” is certainly one of Terry's quotes. It doesn't seem to be from any of the books though. So I strongly suspect it's from an interview. Sorry I can't be more helpful. I suspect someone on the site will know

Welcome to the the Forum as Tony says it's an actual quote, but not in a Discworld book, its a quote from this:
“Wisdom comes from experience. Experience is often a result of lack of wisdom. A”
― Terry Pratchett, The Simple Path to Wealth: Your road map to financial independence and a rich, free life
I hope that clears it up for you.

This doesn't sound familiar to me, sorry. *shrug* Google says it's Terry's quote, but doesn't say where it's from. Does anyone else know?

Hellooo and welcome Aleksandra.

I'm sorry I can't help you either. It might be from one of his talks or interviews but it seems to have been around a long, long time if my memory serves me correctly.
