Best Quotes about Knowledge
Depend upon it there comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forget something that you knew before. It is of the highest importance, therefore, not to have useless facts elbowing out the useful ones.
Doyle, Sir Arthur Conan
The man who is too old to learn was probably always too old to learn.
Haskins, Caryl
You have to believe in God before you can say there are things that man was not meant to know. I don't think there's anything man wasn't meant to know. There are just some stupid things that people shouldn't do.
Cronenberg, David
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
It is not good to know more unless we do more with what we already know.
Bergethon, R. K.
Knowledge and timber shouldn't be much used till they are seasoned.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
I know myself, but that is all.
Fitzgerald, F. Scott
Knowledge is power.
Sir Francis Bacon
There is much pleasure to be gained from useless knowledge.
Bertrand Russell
Knowledge is power, if you know it about the right person
Mumford, Ethel Watts
The most excellent and divine counsel, the best and most profitable advertisement of all others, but the least practiced, is to study and learn how to know ourselves. This is the foundation of wisdom and the highway to whatever is good. God, Nature, the wise, the world, preach man, exhort him both by word and deed to the study of himself.
Charron, Pierre
The desire of knowledge, like the thirst for riches, increases ever with the acquisition of it.
Sterne, Laurence
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
Only divine love bestows the keys of knowledge.
Rimbaud, Arthur
I see men ordinarily more eager to discover a reason for things than to find out whether the things are so.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
When you cease to strive to understand, then you will know without understanding.
Proverb, Chinese
Knowledge without practice is like a glass eye, all for show, and nothing for use.
Swinnock
Today knowledge has power. It controls access to opportunity and advancement.
Drucker, Peter F.
To grow wiser means to learn to know better and better the faults to which this instrument with which we feel and judge can be subject.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. [King Solomon]
Bible
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.
It is not the quantity but the quality of knowledge which determines the mind's dignity.
Channing, William Ellery
A man of knowledge lives by acting, not by thinking about acting.
Castaneda, Carlos
No man can reveal to you nothing but that which already lies half-asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.
Gibran, Kahlil
The less you know, the more you think you know, because you don't know you don't know.
Stevens, Ray
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
The trouble with most folks ain't so much their ignorance as knowing so many things that ain't so.
Billings, Josh
Knowledge which is divorced from justice, may be called cunning rather than wisdom.
Cicero, Marcus T.
Some people drink deeply from the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.
Bright, Grant M.
We live on an island surrounded by a sea of ignorance. As our island of knowledge grows, so does the shore of our ignorance.
Wheeler, John Archibald
Charles V. said that a man who knew four languages was worth four men; and Alexander the Great so valued learning, that he used to say he was more indebted to Aristotle for giving him knowledge that, than his father Philip for giving him life.
Macaulay, Thomas B.
You can live a lifetime and at the end, know more about other people than you know about yourself.
Markham, Beryl
It not knowing what to do, it's doing what you know.
Robbins, Anthony
True knowledge lies in knowing how to live.
Gracian, Baltasar
And all your future lies beneath your hat.
Oldham, John
Knowledge is ancient error reflecting on its youth.
Picabia, Francis
Only a fool knows everything. A wise man knows how little he knows.
Men can acquire knowledge, but not wisdom. Some of the greatest fools ever known were learned men.
Proverb, Spanish
The degree of one's emotions varies inversely with one's knowledge of the facts- the less you know the hotter you get.
Russell, Bertrand
The self-explorer, whether he wants to or not, becomes the explorer of everything else. He learns to see himself, but suddenly, provided he was honest, all the rest appears, and it is as rich as he was, and, as a final crowning, richer.
Canetti, Elias
It is nothing for one to know something unless another knows you know it.
Proverb, Persian
The greater the knowledge, the greater the doubt.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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
The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.
Socrates
Become aware of internal, subjective, sub-verbal experiences, so that these experiences can be brought into the world of abstraction, of conversation, of naming, etc. with the consequence that it immediately becomes possible for a certain amount of control to be exerted over these hitherto unconscious and uncontrollable processes.
Maslow, Abraham H.
Without wisdom, knowledge is either useless or destructive.
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
Search not to find things too deeply hid; Nor try to know things whose knowledge is forbid.
Denham, Sir John
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
Nothing is too small to know, and nothing too big to attempt.
Van Horne, William
