Best Quotes about Knowledge

1.
Knowledge without practice is like a glass eye, all for show, and nothing for use.
Swinnock

2.
Knowledge is of two kinds: We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information about it.
Johnson, Samuel

3.
You never know yourself till you know more than your body.
Traherne, Thomas

4.
The knowledge of an unlearned man is living and luxuriant like a forest, but covered with mosses and lichens and for the most part inaccessible and going to waste; the knowledge of the man of science is like timber collected in yards for public works, which still supports a green sprout here and there, but even this is liable to dry rot.
Thoreau, Henry David

5.
We own almost all our knowledge not to those who have agreed but to those who have differed.
Colton, Charles Caleb

6.
As the biggest library if it is in disorder is not as useful as a small but well-arranged one, so you may accumulate a vast amount of knowledge but it will be of far less value to you than a much smaller amount if you have not thought it over for yourself.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

7.
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

8.
Boys, I may not know much, but I know chicken shit from chicken salad.
Johnson, Lyndon B.

9.
Some students drink at the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.

10.
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

11.
Only divine love bestows the keys of knowledge.
Rimbaud, Arthur

12.
The degree of one's emotions varies inversely with one's knowledge of the facts- the less you know the hotter you get.
Russell, Bertrand

13.
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.

14.
Knowledge of the world in only to be acquired in the world, and not in a closet.
Chesterfield, Lord

15.
His priority did not seem to be to teach them what he knew, but rather to impress upon them that nothing, not even... knowledge, was foolproof.
J. K. Rowling

16.
Knowledge is the only elegance.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

17.
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

18.
Say oh wise man how you have come to such knowledge? Because I was never ashamed to confess my ignorance and ask others.
Herder, Johann Gottfried Von

19.
To know the right means of getting something done is virtually to have done it.
Caine, Mark

20.
He who does not know one thing knows another
Proverb, Kenyan

21.
There is much pleasure to be gained from useless knowledge.
Bertrand Russell

22.
True knowledge lies in knowing how to live.
Gracian, Baltasar

23.
It not knowing what to do, it's doing what you know.
Robbins, Anthony

24.
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

25.
A wise man, when asked how he had learned so much about everything, replied: By never being ashamed or afraid to ask questions about anything of which I was ignorant.

26.
Today knowledge has power. It controls access to opportunity and advancement.
Drucker, Peter F.

27.
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)

28.
Knowledge and human power are synonymous.
Bacon, Francis

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

30.
And you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free. [John 8:32]
Bible

31.
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

32.
It is impossible to begin to learn that which one thinks one already knows.
Epictetus

33.
Knowledge, humbles a great person, astonishes the common, and puffs up the small.
Saying

34.
Knowledge is the small part of ignorance that we arrange and classify.
Bierce, Ambrose

35.
The man who is too old to learn was probably always too old to learn.
Haskins, Caryl

36.
Knowledge is knowing that we cannot know.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

37.
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

38.
Knowledge is a polite word for dead but not buried imagination.
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)

41.
The self-explorer, whether he wants to or not, becomes the explorer of everything else. He learns to see himself, but suddenly, provided he was honest, all the rest appears, and it is as rich as he was, and, as a final crowning, richer.
Canetti, Elias

42.
We forge gradually our greatest instrument for understanding the world -- introspection. We discover that humanity may resemble us very considerably -- that the best way of knowing the inwardness of our neighbors is to know ourselves.
Lippmann, Walter
