Knowledge vs. Wisdom
Knowledge (noun) is a set of information and/or understanding gathered by a person over a period of time, through experience or formal learning.
Examples:
1. "In history class, we learned a lot of new knowledge this year because there are so many facts to memorize."
2. "There is a wide body of knowledge to master in math class."
Wisdom (noun) is
1. a quality of good judgment and ability to make sound decisions, especially learned over time from positive or negative experience,
2. the essential soundness of a decision or course of action,
3. a collective body of knowledge, formed over time especially on a particular subject.
Examples:

2. "I wish to have the wisdom of a sage so that I may always be helpful to others with my expertise and judgment."
Let's use both knowledge and wisdom together in a sentence:
"Knowledge is often useless unless it is accompanied by wisdom."
