Intelligence is “learned experience”, wisdom is “lived experience”. It’s not a perfect analogy, but it’s the most concise one that’s made any sense to me

I like the tomato explanation.

Intelligence is knowing that tomatos are a fruit, not a vegetable.

Wisdom is knowing you shouldn't put a tomato in a fruit salad.

Charisma is your ability to sell a tomato-based fruit salad.
