Knowledge without sense is twofold folly.

wisdom.

The most exquisite folly is made of wisdom spun too fine.
Franklin
One pound of learning requires ten pounds of common sense to
apply it.
Persian Proverb

Goethe
No sense so uncommon as common sense.
Plain sense but rarely leads us astray.

A deluge of words and a drop of sense.
A handful of common sense is worth a bushel of learning.
Our senses, as our reason, are divine.
