Knowledge

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
Knowledge Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Knowledge

1.
Knowledge and human power are synonymous.
Bacon, Francis

2.
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

3.
It is disgraceful to live as a stranger in one's country, and be an alien in any matter that affects our welfare.
Manutius

4.
It is better of course to know useless things than to know nothing.
Stoppard, Tom

5.
Some people drink deeply from the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.
Bright, Grant M.

6.
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

7.
Sin, guilt, neurosis --they are one and the same, the fruit of the tree of knowledge.
Miller, Henry

8.
He who knows little quickly tells it.
Proverb, Italian

9.
The knowledge of an unlearned man is living and luxuriant like a forest, but covered with mosses and lichens and for the most part inaccessible and going to waste; the knowledge of the man of science is like timber collected in yards for public works, which still supports a green sprout here and there, but even this is liable to dry rot.
Thoreau, Henry David

10.
No man can reveal to you nothing but that which already lies half-asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.
Gibran, Kahlil

11.
All men by nature desire knowledge.
Aristotle

12.
You can know the name of a bird in all the languages of the world, but when you're finished, you'll know absolutely nothing whatever about the bird... So let's look at the bird and see what it's doing -- that's what counts. I learned very early the difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something.
Richard Feynman

13.
You have to know what's important and what's unimportant, for you.
Fink, David Harold

14.
Knowledge which is divorced from justice, may be called cunning rather than wisdom.
Cicero, Marcus T.

15.
The end of learning is to know God, and out of that knowledge to love Him and imitate Him.
Milton, John

16.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. [King Solomon]
Bible

17.
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

18.
There is much pleasure to be gained from useless knowledge.
Bertrand Russell

19.
The trouble with the world is not that people know too little, but that they know so many things that ain't so.
Twain, Mark

20.
Be curious always! For knowledge will not acquire you: you must acquire it.
Back, Sudie

21.
Never by reflection, but only by doing is self-knowledge possible to one.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

22.
Knowledge, humbles a great person, astonishes the common, and puffs up the small.
Saying

23.
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

24.
No man knows less than the man who knows it all

25.
When you know a thing, to hold that you know it; and when you do not know a thing, to allow that you do not know it - this is knowledge.
Confucius

26.
Convinced myself, I seek not to convince.
Edgar Allan Poe

27.
The trouble with most folks ain't so much their ignorance as knowing so many things that ain't so.
Billings, Josh

28.
How do you know so much about everything? was asked of a very wise and intelligent man; and the answer was By never being afraid or ashamed to ask questions as to anything of which I was ignorant.
Abbott, John

29.
Knowledge of what is does not open the door directly to what should be.
Einstein, Albert

30.
Seldom if ever was knowledge given to keep, but always to impart. The grace of this rich jewel is lost in concealment.
Hall, Bishop

31.
A man of knowledge lives by acting, not by thinking about acting.
Castaneda, Carlos

32.
He who seeks to approach his own buried past must conduct himself like a man digging. He must not be afraid to return again and again to the same matter; to scatter it as one scatters earth, to turn it over as one turns over soil. For the matter itself is only a deposit, a stratum, which yields only to the most meticulous examination what constitutes the real treasure hidden within the earth: the images, severed from all earlier associations, that stand --like precious fragments or torsos in a collector's gallery --in the prosaic rooms of our later understanding.
Benjamin, Walter

33.
Acquire new knowledge whilst thinking over the old, and you may become a teacher of others.
Confucius

34.
Knowledge is a treasure, but practice is the key to it.
Fuller, Thomas

35.
It not knowing what to do, it's doing what you know.
Robbins, Anthony

36.
If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it.
Margaret Fuller

37.
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

38.
Knowledge, like religion, must be experienced in order to be known.
Whipple, Edwin P.

39.
Only a fool knows everything. A wise man knows how little he knows.

40.
I would have the studies elective. Scholarship is to be created not by compulsion, but by awakening a pure interest in knowledge. The wise instructor accomplishes this by opening to his pupils precisely the attractions the study has for himself. The marking is a system for schools, not for the college; for boys, not for men; and it is an ungracious work to put on a professor.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

41.
Knowledge is power. Rather, knowledge is happiness, because to have knowledge -- broad, deep knowledge -- is to know true ends from false, and lofty things from low. To know the thoughts and deeds that have marked man's progress is to feel the great heartthrobs of humanity through the centuries; and if one does not feel in these pulsations a heavenward striving, one must indeed be deaf to the harmonies of life.
Keller, Helen

42.
Knowledge becomes wisdom only after it has been put to practical use.

43.
Knowledge is power, but enthusiasm pulls the switch.
Ball, Ivern

44.
Knowledge is like money: the more he gets, the more he craves.
Billings, Josh

45.
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

46.
Knowledge is the treasure, but judgment is the treasurer of the one who is wise.
Penn, William

47.
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.

48.
The mark of a well educated person is not necessarily in knowing all the answers, but in knowing where to find them.
Everett, Douglas

49.
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

50.
Proclaim not all thou knowest, all thou knowest, all thou hast, nor all thou cans't.
Franklin, Benjamin
