I think wives certainly know more than husbands think they do, but I think wives are still far from knowing all there is to know.
I am myself indifferent honest, but yet I could accuse me of such things that it were better my mother had not borne me. I am very proud, revengeful, ambitious, with more offenses at my beck than I have thoughts to put them in, imagination to give them shape, or time to act them in. We are arrant knaves, all. Believe none of us. Go thy ways to a nunnery.

The secret to a healthy marriage is to marry a gullible woman. In my case it was the only way to have a marriage, period.

EMET is more from the lineage of wise men rather than judges.
As Exodus describes; every wise hearted man, in whom the LORD put wisdom and understanding.
Ten is the measure for he that doth hear.

Polonius was reckoned a wise man as well (as these things go).
Sorry I don’t have a more apposite quote, but I don’t have my text at hand…
