Best Quotes about Knowledge

1.
Know, first, who you are, and then adorn yourself accordingly.
Epictetus

2.
The end of learning is to know God, and out of that knowledge to love Him and imitate Him.
Milton, John

3.
There is a period of life when we swallow knowledge of ourselves and it becomes either good or sour inside.
Bailey, Pearl

4.
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

5.
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

6.
It not knowing what to do, it's doing what you know.
Robbins, Anthony

7.
Today knowledge has power. It controls access to opportunity and advancement.
Drucker, Peter F.

8.
The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.
Socrates

9.
'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

10.
To know yet to think that one does not know is best; Not to know yet to think that one knows will lead to difficulty.
Lao-Tzu

11.
Knowledge conquered by labor becomes a possession -- a property entirely our own.
Smiles, Samuel

12.
Without knowledge, life is not more than the shadow of death.
Moliere

13.
Knowledge is a polite word for dead but not buried imagination.
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)

14.
He who does not know one thing knows another
Proverb, Kenyan

15.
Some students drink at the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.

16.
To know yourself, see how others do, to know others look into your own heart.
Smiles, Sydney

17.
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

18.
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

19.
I think knowing what you cannot do is more important than knowing what you can.
Ball, Lucille

20.
Knowledge fills a large brain; it merely inflates a small one.

21.
Knowledge is only potential power.
Hill, Napoleon

22.
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

23.
The man who is too old to learn was probably always too old to learn.
Haskins, Caryl

24.
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.

25.
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

26.
An humble knowledge of thyself is a surer way to God than a deep search after learning.
Kempis, Thomas

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

28.
He knows so little and knows it so fluently.
Glasgow, Ellen

29.
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

30.
Knowledge which is divorced from justice, may be called cunning rather than wisdom.
Cicero, Marcus T.

31.
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

32.
Knowledge must come through action; you can have no test which is not fanciful, save by trial.
Sophocles

33.
I honestly believe it is better to know nothing than to know what ain't so.
Billings, Josh

34.
Try to put well in practice what you already know. In so doing, you will, in good time, discover the hidden things you now inquire about.
Rembrandt (Harmenszoon van Rijn)

35.
I wish I knew what I know now before.
Stewart, Rod

36.
Knowledge is gained by learning; trust by doubt; skill by practice; love by love.
Szasz, Thomas

37.
Only divine love bestows the keys of knowledge.
Rimbaud, Arthur

38.
And all your future lies beneath your hat.
Oldham, John

39.
Knowledge has to be improved, challenged, and increased constantly, or it vanishes.
Drucker, Peter F.

40.
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.

41.
Sin, guilt, neurosis --they are one and the same, the fruit of the tree of knowledge.
Miller, Henry

42.
Those who think they know it all are very annoying to those of us who do.
Mueller, Robert K.

43.
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

44.
During the last century, and part of the one before, it was widely held that there was an unreconcilable conflict between knowledge and belief.
Einstein, Albert

45.
To know the right means of getting something done is virtually to have done it.
Caine, Mark

46.
We can only learn to know ourselves and do what we can -- namely, surrender our will and fulfill God's will in us.
Teresa of Avila, St.

47.
There are three principal means of acquiring knowledge available to us: observation of nature, reflection, and experimentation. Observation collects facts; reflection combines them; experimentation verifies the result of that combination. Our observation of nature must be diligent, our reflection profound, and our experiments exact. We rarely see these three means combined; and for this reason, creative geniuses are not common.
Diderot, Denis

48.
I know myself as a human entity; the scene, so to speak, or thoughts are affection; and am sensible of certain doubleness by which I can stand as remote from myself as from another. However intense my experience, I am conscious of the presence and criticism of a part of me, which, as it were, is no part of me, but spectator, sharing no experience, but taking note of it, and that is no more I than it is you.
Thoreau, Henry David

49.
Knowledge is power, but enthusiasm pulls the switch.
Ball, Ivern

50.
The knowledge of God is far from the love of Him.
Miller, Keith
