About This Quote

“Philosophy is like wine. There are good years and bad years but, in general, the older the better” is an old saying that roughly means that wine is like philosophy. Just like with wine, the older the philosopher the better. It’s worth noting that people often use this saying to refer to human wisdom rather than philosophy.
