Motivational Quotes
Knowledge
A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely more than much knowledge that is idle.

Best Quotes about Knowledge
'Tis not need we know our every thought or see the work shop where each mask is wrought wherefrom we view the world of box and pit, careless of wear, just so the mask shall fit and serve our jape's turn for a night or two.
Pound, Ezra
To me the charm of an encyclopedia is that it knows and I needn't.
Brown, Francis Yeats
You have to know what's important and what's unimportant, for you.
Fink, David Harold
Knowledge is ancient error reflecting on its youth.
Picabia, Francis
If you have knowledge, let others light their candles with it.
Churchill, Winston
There's a theory, one I find persuasive, that the quest for knowledge is, at bottom, the search for the answer to the question: Where was I before I was born. In the beginning was what? Perhaps, in the beginning, there was a curious room, a room like this one, crammed with wonders; and now the room and all it contains are forbidden you, although it was made just for you, had been prepared for you since time began, and you will spend all your life trying to remember it.
Carter, Angela
Knowledge of what is does not open the door directly to what should be.
Einstein, Albert
Everything has been said yet few have taken advantage of it. Since all our knowledge is essentially banal, it can only be of value to minds that are not.
Vaneigem, Raoul
Knowledge is the only elegance.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Knowledge is in the end based on acknowledgement.
Wittgenstein, Ludwig
There are three things extremely hard: steel, a diamond, and to know one's self.
Franklin, Benjamin
The end of learning is to know God, and out of that knowledge to love Him and imitate Him.
Milton, John
Knowledge like timber shouldn't be mush use till they are seasoned.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
Many of us don't have to turn out the lights to be in the dark.
No matter what happens, there's always somebody who knew it would.
Starr, Lonny
Knowledge becomes wisdom only after it has been put to practical use.
As the biggest library if it is in disorder is not as useful as a small but well-arranged one, so you may accumulate a vast amount of knowledge but it will be of far less value to you than a much smaller amount if you have not thought it over for yourself.
Schopenhauer, Arthur
Inside myself is a place where I live all alone and that is where I renew my springs that never dry up.
Buck, Pearl S.
Knowledge is power.
Sir Francis Bacon
We have no organ at all for knowledge, for truth: we know (or believe or imagine) precisely as much as may be useful in the interest of the human herd, the species: and even what is here called usefulness is in the end only a belief, something imagined and perhaps precisely that most fatal piece of stupidity by which we shall one day perish.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
Since we can't know what knowledge will be most needed in the future, it is senseless to try to teach it in advance. Instead, we should try to turn out people who love learning so much and learn so well that they will be able to learn whatever needs to be learned.
Holt, John
Knowledge is of two kinds: We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information about it.
Johnson, Samuel
If people can be educated to see the lowly side of their own natures, it may be hoped that they will also learn to understand and to love their fellow men better. A little less hypocrisy and a little more tolerance towards oneself can only have good results in respect for our neighbor; for we are all too prone to transfer to our fellows the injustice and violence we inflict upon our own natures.
Jung, Carl
It's a dangerous thing to think we know everything.
Kuehler, Jack
Once thoroughly our own knowledge ceases to give us pleasure.
Ruskin, John
Convinced myself, I seek not to convince.
Edgar Allan Poe
A man can only attain knowledge with the help of those who possess it. This must be understood from the very beginning. One must learn from him who knows.
Gurdjieff, George
Seldom if ever was knowledge given to keep, but always to impart. The grace of this rich jewel is lost in concealment.
Hall, Bishop
It is nothing for one to know something unless another knows you know it.
Proverb, Persian
Knowledge is like money: the more he gets, the more he craves.
Billings, Josh
It is disgraceful to live as a stranger in one's country, and be an alien in any matter that affects our welfare.
Manutius
Knowledge is and will be produced in order to be sold, it is and will be consumed in order to be valorized in a new production: in both cases, the goal is exchange. Knowledge ceases to be an end in itself, it loses its use-value.
Lyotard, Jean Francois
Know, first, who you are, and then adorn yourself accordingly.
Epictetus
A human being has so many skins inside, covering the depths of the heart. We know so many things, but we don't know ourselves! Why, thirty or forty skins or hides, as thick and hard as an ox's or bear's, cover the soul. Go into your own ground and learn to know yourself there.
Eckhart, Meister
It is no good to try to stop knowledge from going forward. Ignorance is never better than knowledge.
Enrico Fermi
Without knowledge, life is not more than the shadow of death.
Moliere
When a person acts without knowledge of what he thinks, feels, needs or wants, he does not yet have the option of choosing to act differently.
Moustakas, Clark
Nothing is too small to know, and nothing too big to attempt.
Van Horne, William
One-tenth of the folks run the world. One-tenth watch them run it, and the other eighty percent don't know what the hell's going on.
Simmons, Jake
Knowledge of the world in only to be acquired in the world, and not in a closet.
Chesterfield, Lord
To know yourself you have only to set down a true statement of those that ever loved or hated you.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar
If we value the pursuit of knowledge, we must be free to follow wherever that search may lead us. The free mind is not a barking dog, to be tethered on a ten-foot chain.
Adlai E. Stevenson Jr.
Knowledge always demands increase; it is like fire, which must first be kindled by some external agent, but will afterwards always propagate itself.
Johnson, Samuel
Knowledge is the most democratic source of power.
Toffler, Alvin
Knowledge without education is but armed injustice.
Horace
Knowledge is the small part of ignorance that we arrange and classify.
Bierce, Ambrose
The greater our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds.
Kennedy, John F.
Mankind have a great aversion to intellectual labor; but even supposing knowledge to be easily attainable, more people would be content to be ignorant than would take even a little trouble to acquire it.
Samuel Johnson
When one is a stranger to oneself then one is estranged from others too.
Lindbergh, Anne Morrow
If you want to know the taste of a pear, you must change the pear by eating it yourself. If you want to know the theory and methods of revolution, you must take part in revolution. All genuine knowledge originates in direct experience.
Zedong, Mao
