Best Quotes about Knowledge
Knowledge fills a large brain; it merely inflates a small one.
Knowledge is what we get when an observer, preferably a scientifically trained observer, provides us with a copy of reality that we can all recognize.
Lasch, Christopher
The one self-knowledge worth having is to know one's own mind.
Bradley, Francis H.
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
We don't know one-millionth of one percent about anything.
Edison, Thomas A.
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
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.
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
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
Knowledge is power, but enthusiasm pulls the switch.
Ball, Ivern
Knowledge and human power are synonymous.
Bacon, Francis
The hunger and thirst for knowledge, the keen delight in the chase, the good humored willingness to admit that the scent was false, the eager desire to get on with the work, the cheerful resolution to go back and begin again, the broad good sense, the unaffected modesty, the imperturbable temper, the gratitude for any little help that was given -- all these will remain in my memory though I cannot paint them for others.
Maitland, Frederic William
All men by nature desire knowledge.
Aristotle
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
Some people drink deeply from the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.
Bright, Grant M.
Knowledge is power, if you know it about the right person
Mumford, Ethel Watts
It not knowing what to do, it's doing what you know.
Robbins, Anthony
Far better is it to know everything of a little than a little of everything.
Pickering
The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.
Socrates
Convinced myself, I seek not to convince.
Edgar Allan Poe
Nothing is too small to know, and nothing too big to attempt.
Van Horne, William
Knowledge is not a passion from without the mind, but an active exertion of the inward strength, vigor and power of the mind, displaying itself from within.
Cudworth, Ralph J.
There are three things extremely hard: steel, a diamond, and to know one's self.
Franklin, Benjamin
Acquire new knowledge whilst thinking over the old, and you may become a teacher of others.
Confucius
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
Knowledge is the only elegance.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
No man can reveal to you nothing but that which already lies half-asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.
Gibran, Kahlil
Knowledge, like religion, must be experienced in order to be known.
Whipple, Edwin P.
Search not to find things too deeply hid; Nor try to know things whose knowledge is forbid.
Denham, Sir John
Many of us don't have to turn out the lights to be in the dark.
The knowledge of God is far from the love of Him.
Miller, Keith
There are things known, and there are things unknown. And in between are the doors.
Morrison, Jim
Better indeed is knowledge than mechanical practice. Better than knowledge is meditation. But better still is surrender of attachment to results, because there follows immediate peace.
Bhagavad Gita
He knows the universe and does not know himself.
La Fontaine, Jean De
Knowledge without practice is like a glass eye, all for show, and nothing for use.
Swinnock
Only a fool knows everything. A wise man knows how little he knows.
One thing only I know, and that is that I know nothing.
Socrates
Knowledge is the treasure, but judgment is the treasurer of the one who is wise.
Penn, William
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
We own almost all our knowledge not to those who have agreed but to those who have differed.
Colton, Charles Caleb
We are in fact convinced that if we are ever to have pure knowledge of anything, we must get rid of the body and contemplate things by themselves with the soul by itself. It seems, to judge from the argument, that the wisdom which we desire and upon which we profess to have set our hearts will be attainable only when we are dead and not in our lifetime.
Socrates
You have to know what's important and what's unimportant, for you.
Fink, David Harold
It is impossible to begin to learn that which one thinks one already knows.
Epictetus
A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely more than much knowledge that is idle.
Gibran, Kahlil
It is better of course to know useless things than to know nothing.
Stoppard, Tom
A man of knowledge lives by acting, not by thinking about acting.
Castaneda, Carlos
Knowledge of what is does not open the door directly to what should be.
Einstein, Albert
Knowledge without education is but armed injustice.
Horace
Knowledge is gained by learning; trust by doubt; skill by practice; love by love.
Szasz, Thomas
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
