Best Quotes about Knowledge

1.
He who knows little quickly tells it.
Proverb, Italian

2.
When one is a stranger to oneself then one is estranged from others too.
Lindbergh, Anne Morrow

3.
Once thoroughly our own knowledge ceases to give us pleasure.
Ruskin, John

4.
It is not the quantity but the quality of knowledge which determines the mind's dignity.
Channing, William Ellery

5.
Knowledge is a process of piling up facts; wisdom lies in their simplification.
Fischer, Martin H.

6.
No matter what happens, there's always somebody who knew it would.
Starr, Lonny

7.
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.

8.
Without knowledge, life is not more than the shadow of death.
Moliere

9.
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

10.
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

11.
Knowledge is in the end based on acknowledgement.
Wittgenstein, Ludwig

12.
Knowledge is and will be produced in order to be sold, it is and will be consumed in order to be valorized in a new production: in both cases, the goal is exchange. Knowledge ceases to be an end in itself, it loses its use-value.
Lyotard, Jean Francois

13.
You can live a lifetime and at the end, know more about other people than you know about yourself.
Markham, Beryl

14.
It's a dangerous thing to think we know everything.
Kuehler, Jack

15.
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

16.
Know thyself? If I knew myself I would run away.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

17.
An age is called Dark not because the light fails to shine, but because people refuse to see it.
Michener, James A.

18.
One thing only I know, and that is that I know nothing.
Socrates

19.
The greater our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds.
Kennedy, John F.

20.
A man of knowledge lives by acting, not by thinking about acting.
Castaneda, Carlos

21.
The greater the knowledge, the greater the doubt.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

22.
He knows the universe and does not know himself.
La Fontaine, Jean De

23.
God grant that not only the love of liberty but a thorough knowledge of the rights of man may pervade all the nations of the earth, so that a philosopher may set his foot anywhere on its surface and say: This is my country!
Franklin, Benjamin

24.
Depend upon it there comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forget something that you knew before. It is of the highest importance, therefore, not to have useless facts elbowing out the useful ones.
Doyle, Sir Arthur Conan

25.
Many a man who has known himself at ten forgets himself utterly between ten and thirty.
Bowen, Catherine Drinker

26.
There are things known, and there are things unknown. And in between are the doors.
Morrison, Jim

27.
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

28.
To me the charm of an encyclopedia is that it knows and I needn't.
Brown, Francis Yeats

29.
I honestly believe it is better to know nothing than to know what ain't so.
Billings, Josh

30.
The trouble with most folks ain't so much their ignorance as knowing so many things that ain't so.
Billings, Josh

31.
Knowledge is knowing that we cannot know.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

32.
I was born not knowing and have had only a little time to change that here and there.
Richard Feynman

33.
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''

34.
Knowledge is of two kinds: We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information about it.
Johnson, Samuel

35.
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

36.
Self-knowledge comes from knowing other men.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

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

38.
Be curious always! For knowledge will not acquire you: you must acquire it.
Back, Sudie

39.
Knowledge is the best eraser in the world for disharmony, distrust, despair, and the endless physical deficiencies of man.
Battista, Orlando A.

40.
Each department of knowledge passes through three stages. The theoretic stage; the theological stage and the metaphysical or abstract stage.
Comte, Auguste

41.
He knows so little and knows it so fluently.
Glasgow, Ellen

42.
The one self-knowledge worth having is to know one's own mind.
Bradley, Francis H.

43.
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.

44.
Search not to find things too deeply hid; Nor try to know things whose knowledge is forbid.
Denham, Sir John

45.
Only when he no longer knows what he is doing does the painter do good things.
Degas, Edgar

46.
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

47.
Knowledge of the world in only to be acquired in the world, and not in a closet.
Chesterfield, Lord

48.
Today knowledge has power. It controls access to opportunity and advancement.
Drucker, Peter F.

49.
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

50.
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.
