Ben Sira 34:10

10 You can't know much if you haven't experienced much, but travel can make you more clever.

Ben Sira 34:10 In-Context

8 The Law is complete without such falsehood. Wisdom, as spoken by the righteous, is also complete without it.
9 A well-traveled person with wide experience knows many things and talks sense.
10 You can't know much if you haven't experienced much, but travel can make you more clever.
11 In my own travels I have seen many things and learned more than I can put into words.
12 I have been in danger of death many times, but I have always been able to escape by relying on past experience.
