Best Quotes about Knowledge

1.
We don't know one-millionth of one percent about anything.
Edison, Thomas A.

2.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself. Psychology is action, not thinking about oneself. We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die.
Camus, Albert

3.
No matter what happens, there's always somebody who knew it would.
Starr, Lonny

4.
Convinced myself, I seek not to convince.
Edgar Allan Poe

5.
Knowledge is knowing that we cannot know.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

6.
One thing only I know, and that is that I know nothing.
Socrates

7.
Knowledge is of two kinds: We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information about it.
Johnson, Samuel

8.
The trouble with most folks ain't so much their ignorance as knowing so many things that ain't so.
Billings, Josh

9.
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

10.
An humble knowledge of thyself is a surer way to God than a deep search after learning.
Kempis, Thomas

11.
The long unmeasured pulse of time moves everything. There is nothing hidden that it cannot bring to light, nothing once known that may not become unknown.
Sophocles

12.
Knowledge, without common sense, says Lee, is folly; without method, it is waste; without kindness, it is fanaticism; without religion, it is death. But with common sense, it is wisdom with method, it is power; with clarity, it is beneficence; with religion, it is virtue, and life, and peace.
Farrar, Austin

13.
Knowledge may give weight, but accomplishments give luster, and many more people see than weigh.
Chesterfield, Lord

14.
Knowledge is gained by learning; trust by doubt; skill by practice; love by love.
Szasz, Thomas

15.
Knowledge must come through action; you can have no test which is not fanciful, save by trial.
Sophocles

16.
You never know yourself till you know more than your body.
Traherne, Thomas

17.
Knowledge is a process of piling up facts; wisdom lies in their simplification.
Fischer, Martin H.

18.
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

19.
Know-how will surpass guess-how.

20.
Knowledge and human power are synonymous.
Bacon, Francis

21.
The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.
Socrates

22.
Self knowers always dwell in El Dorado; they drink from the fountain of youth, and at all times owners of all they wish to enjoy.
Bristol, Claude M.

23.
Each department of knowledge passes through three stages. The theoretic stage; the theological stage and the metaphysical or abstract stage.
Comte, Auguste

24.
Knowledge becomes wisdom only after it has been put to practical use.

25.
What's scary in life is not what people know (or don't know), but what they know that ain't so.
Paige, Leroy ''Satchel''

26.
We are drowning in information and starving for knowledge.
Roger, Rutherford D.

27.
Knowledge of the world in only to be acquired in the world, and not in a closet.
Chesterfield, Lord

28.
Knowledge without education is but armed injustice.
Horace

29.
Our treasure lies in the beehive of our knowledge. We are perpetually on the way thither, being by nature winged insects and honey gatherers of the mind.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

30.
The mark of a well educated person is not necessarily in knowing all the answers, but in knowing where to find them.
Everett, Douglas

31.
Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information on it.
Samuel Johnson

32.
It is part of our pedagogy to teach the operations of thinking, feeling, and willing so that they may be made conscious. For if we do not know the difference between an emotion and a thought, we will know very little. We need to understand the components (of emotions) at work... in order to free their hold.
Richards, Mary Caroline

33.
To know the right means of getting something done is virtually to have done it.
Caine, Mark

34.
Every man gets a narrower and narrower field of knowledge in which he must be an expert in order to compete with other people. The specialist knows more and more about less and less and finally knows everything about nothing.
Lorenz, Konrad

35.
I think knowing what you cannot do is more important than knowing what you can.
Ball, Lucille

36.
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

37.
There are things known, and there are things unknown. And in between are the doors.
Morrison, Jim

38.
There is no knowledge, no light, no wisdom that you are in possession of, but what you have received it from some source.
Young, Brigham

39.
To me the charm of an encyclopedia is that it knows and I needn't.
Brown, Francis Yeats

40.
Know thyself. A maxim as pernicious as it is ugly. Whoever studies himself arrest his own development. A caterpillar who seeks to know himself would never become a butterfly.
Gide, Andre

41.
Only a fool knows everything. A wise man knows how little he knows.

42.
Vague and mysterious forms of speech, and abuse of language, have so long passed for mysteries of science; and hard or misapplied words with little or no meaning have, by prescription, such a right to be mistaken for deep learning and height of speculation, that it will not be easy to persuade either those who speak or those who hear them, that they are but the covers of ignorance and hindrance of true knowledge.
Locke, John

43.
A man of knowledge lives by acting, not by thinking about acting.
Castaneda, Carlos

44.
There is, so I believe, in the essence of everything, something that we cannot call learning. There is, my friend, only a knowledge -- that is everywhere.
Hesse, Hermann

45.
True scholarship consists in knowing not what things exist, but what they mean; it is not memory but judgment.
Lowell, James Russell

46.
Today knowledge has power. It controls access to opportunity and advancement.
Drucker, Peter F.

47.
Never by reflection, but only by doing is self-knowledge possible to one.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

48.
Nothing is too small to know, and nothing too big to attempt.
Van Horne, William

49.
Knowledge of ourselves teaches us whence we come, where we are and whither we are going. We come from God and we are in exile; and it is because our potency of affection lends towards God that we are aware of this state of exile.
Ruysbroeck, Jan Van

50.
Who knows most believes least.
Proverb
