Tao Bible - Proverbs 4:7

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
~ King James version ~

Wisdom is a means, not the goal.
~ possible Taoist alternative ~
Solomon urges his son to seek wisdom. He presents wisdom as a worthy goal.

The Taoist sages would say that, if you seek wisdom, you most likely will never attain it. Wisdom is one of those things we can gain without trying...so long as we are open TO it.
