Best Quotes about Knowledge

1.
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

2.
Inside myself is a place where I live all alone and that is where I renew my springs that never dry up.
Buck, Pearl S.

3.
Many of us don't have to turn out the lights to be in the dark.

4.
Knowledge is gained by learning; trust by doubt; skill by practice; love by love.
Szasz, Thomas

5.
The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.
Socrates

6.
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

7.
Only divine love bestows the keys of knowledge.
Rimbaud, Arthur

8.
You can always draw as well as you know how to. I flatter myself that I feel more than I express on canvas; but I know that is not so.
Hunt, William Morris

9.
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

10.
There is much pleasure to be gained from useless knowledge.
Bertrand Russell

11.
An age is called Dark not because the light fails to shine, but because people refuse to see it.
Michener, James A.

12.
Knowledge always demands increase; it is like fire, which must first be kindled by some external agent, but will afterwards always propagate itself.
Johnson, Samuel

13.
One secures the gold of the spirit when he finds himself.
Bristol, Claude M.

14.
The next best thing to knowing something is knowing where to find it.
Johnson, Samuel

15.
To me the charm of an encyclopedia is that it knows and I needn't.
Brown, Francis Yeats

16.
We are drowning in information and starving for knowledge.
Roger, Rutherford D.

17.
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

18.
Many people think of knowledge as money, They would like knowledge, but do not want to face the perseverance and self-denial that goes into the acquisition of it.
Morely, John

19.
Knowledge is power, but enthusiasm pulls the switch.
Ball, Ivern

20.
A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely more than much knowledge that is idle.
Gibran, Kahlil

21.
To learn to get along without, to realize that what the world is going to demand of us may be a good deal more important than what we are entitled to demand of it -- this is a hard lesson.
Catton, Bruce

22.
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

23.
To be conscious that you are ignorant is a great step to knowledge.
Benjamin Disraeli

24.
He knows the universe and does not know himself.
La Fontaine, Jean De

25.
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.

26.
Never by reflection, but only by doing is self-knowledge possible to one.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

27.
Knowledge, like religion, must be experienced in order to be known.
Whipple, Edwin P.

28.
He that knows himself, knows others; and he that is ignorant of himself, could not write a very profound lecture on other men's heads.
Colton, Charles Caleb

29.
Today knowledge has power. It controls access to opportunity and advancement.
Drucker, Peter F.

30.
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

31.
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.

32.
Knowledge is ancient error reflecting on its youth.
Picabia, Francis

33.
The greater our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds.
Kennedy, John F.

34.
When you see the abyss, and we have looked into it, then what? There isn't much room at the edge -- one person, another, not many. If you are there, others cannot be there. If you are there, you become a protective wall. What happens? You become part of t
Wiesel, Elie

35.
Convinced myself, I seek not to convince.
Edgar Allan Poe

36.
Knowledge which is divorced from justice, may be called cunning rather than wisdom.
Cicero, Marcus T.

37.
To despise our own species is the price we must often pay for knowledge of it.
Colton, Charles Caleb

38.
I have tried to know absolutely nothing about a great many things, and I have succeeded fairly well.
Benchley, Robert

39.
Once thoroughly our own knowledge ceases to give us pleasure.
Ruskin, John

40.
Knowledge may give weight, but accomplishments give luster, and many more people see than weigh.
Chesterfield, Lord

41.
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

42.
You can't know too much, but you can say too much.
Coolidge, Calvin

43.
Knowledge and human power are synonymous.
Bacon, Francis

44.
The trouble with most folks ain't so much their ignorance as knowing so many things that ain't so.
Billings, Josh

45.
Knowledge of ourselves teaches us whence we come, where we are and whither we are going. We come from God and we are in exile; and it is because our potency of affection lends towards God that we are aware of this state of exile.
Ruysbroeck, Jan Van

46.
Without knowledge, life is not more than the shadow of death.
Moliere

47.
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

48.
What's scary in life is not what people know (or don't know), but what they know that ain't so.
Paige, Leroy ''Satchel''

49.
Knowledge of the world in only to be acquired in the world, and not in a closet.
Chesterfield, Lord

All knowledge is ambiguous.
Habgood, J. S.
