Ecclesiastes 1:16-18 - The Spokesman Begins To Study Life

16 I said to my heart, I have become great and have acquired more wisdom than all who were before me in Jerusalem. Yes, my heart has seen an abundance of wisdom and knowledge. 17 I gave my heart to know wisdom and to know madness and folly. I know that this also is a striving after wind.

18 In much wisdom there is much grief for he who increases knowledge increases pain.
