Over the Garden Wall is great because you can watch the entire thing in an hour and fifty minutes and then think about it nonstop for the rest of your life.
“I’ve always loved you, and when you love someone, you love the whole person, just as he or she is, and not as you would like them to be.”
— Anna Karenina, Leo Tolstoy (b. 9 September 1828)
How can I write a wise character if I'm not wise?
Because you have the advantage of time. Your wise characters can say and do spontaneously wise things. You, on the other hand, have as long as you need to think about the wise responses needed and the wise things they can say. And you can even think of wise things and then find a place in the story for them to go.

What's your advice on writing when you have a setting, characters and a premise but... no plot? Do you just start writing and hope lightning hits or do you wait for inspiration first so you don't write yourself in circles?
You could do that. (Sometimes it works. Often it doesn’t.) Or you could take your characters and your setting and your premise and then ask yourself questions like:
So what sorts of thing would happen if I had those characters in that setting given this premise?
What do each of the characters in this story want? And what’s stopping them getting that?
If that premise was really happening what would it mean for the characters? How would they react? Which characters are going to get in the other characters’ way?
What is the single coolest thing that could happen then?
What would I love to write about in all this? What are the scenes that I’m excited to write about?
Is there something I could do in this kind Of story but nobody has ever done in this kind of story before?
Why should we care?
How can I make people care?
What is going to make me keep turning the pages as a writer?
And then what happens....?
And before you know it, you’re plotting.
