You got me: wise = grey beard.

*begin teasing mode* Well I sure to heck hope I don't have to be wizened to be wise! *end teasing mode*

wizened (adjective): withered; lean and wrinkled by shrinkage as from age or illness

Heh. See, I wasn't even thinking about that definition. Guess I should have said "wise". Clearly, I need to bust that Dictionary/Thesaurus out again, as I don't know my language nearly as well as I think I do.

This verse, from Star Light Express - "Belle the Sleeping Car", sums it up:

Looks and youth ain’t everything
Experience is a quality that counts for a lot
The sad thing about experience
Is by the time you’ve got it
Its usually all you’ve got
