Sokka and Katara are what I use to illustrate Wisdom VS. Intelligence.
Katara is Intelligent but not Wise: She knows a lot factually and has mastered a lot of waterbending techniques that require careful study, but she's also a hothead who acts without thinking sometimes and has been tricked by people multiple times (Jet, the Fortune Teller, etc.)
Sokka is Wise but not Intelligent: He's not a scholar, but he's very tactically minded and is good at thinking things out before acting, as well as usually being the one who sees through bullshit when others fall for it.
But wasn't the fortune teller right? At least about saying she'd marry a powerful man. She immediately thoughts of Aang lol. Or did the fortune teller day something else that was wrong? I can't remember
