Wisdom is typically considered the ultimate end of philosophy. As the Word implies, philosophy is the love of wisdom/befriending wisdom. To achieve said wisdom is likely the goal of every philosopher. It may be the case, however, that wisdom is considered a virtue. For instance, Aristotle considered prudence(practical wisdom) to be the most important virtue since it connects all other virtues (temperance, courage, etc.) in their foundations.
What I would like for you to do is to define wisdom for yourself: What do you think wisdom is? Perhaps then, you will understand the answer.
