Find a word related to S A G E

The idea is to find an English word (synonym – antonym – phrase etc ) related to the word

S A G E (sustantivo, adjetivo ) and then write a simple sentence in English and Spanish for that word.

Example:

To be sage is often thought of as a characteristic of wise older people.

Ser sabio es a menudo considerado como una característica de las personas mayores sagaz. (I'm not sure of this sentence)

**Ser sabio, a menudo se considera una característica de las personas mayores.*

Gracias Inteligible

Pictures are a good idea.

This link might help you

Mariana has kindly agreed to be the “official” corrector of the Spanish. But I have not seen her for quite a while. Any volunteers?

I think I can manage being the “unofficial” corrector for the English, ja ja

This is the previous challenge

I volunteer untill Mariana says otherwise, if is it okay. - 003492fc, Aug 29, 2013
By the way, the example sentence is fine. Could be "Ser sabio, a menudo se considera una característica de las personas mayores.". Feels more natural. - 003492fc, Aug 29, 2013
Gracias amigo - all help is very welcome. - ian-hill, Aug 30, 2013
