David Brooks: how to know another person

Sociologist David Brooks used to think wisdom was the ability to utter life-changing maxims like Dumbledore or Yoda. Now he believes it's about deeply seeing someone else's experience. "I think wisdom is just the ability to be tenderly receptive, to sit with someone, hear their story, see them in the noble struggle, and create an atmosphere of hospitality so they feel free to express themselves," he tells Jesse Mulligan.
