Ralph, Blum

The next best thing to knowing something is knowing where to find it.
Johnson, Samuel

Lyotard, Jean Francois

Manutius

Mumford, Ethel Watts

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

24.
Knowledge is the only elegance.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

25.
The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.
Socrates

26.
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

27.
He who knows only his own side of the case, knows little of that.
Mill, John Stuart

28.
It is, I fear, but a vain show of fulfilling the heathen precept, Know thyself, and too often leads to a self-estimate which will subsist in the absence of that fruit by which alone the quality of the tree is made evident.
Eliot, George

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