Best Quotes about Knowledge
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)
True scholarship consists in knowing not what things exist, but what they mean; it is not memory but judgment.
Lowell, James Russell
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
Once thoroughly our own knowledge ceases to give us pleasure.
Ruskin, John
I know myself, but that is all.
Fitzgerald, F. Scott
Knowledge does not come to us in details, but in flashes of light from heaven.
Thoreau, Henry David
Knowledge is power, if you know it about the right person
Mumford, Ethel Watts
Own more than thou showest, speak less than thou knowest.
Shakespeare, William
Knowledge conquered by labor becomes a possession -- a property entirely our own.
Smiles, Samuel
The desire of knowledge, like the thirst for riches, increases ever with the acquisition of it.
Sterne, Laurence
Knowledge and human power are synonymous.
Bacon, Francis
I think knowing what you cannot do is more important than knowing what you can.
Ball, Lucille
The next best thing to knowing something is knowing where to find it.
Johnson, Samuel
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
Oh how fine it is to know a thing or two!
Moliere
There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance.
Socrates
If you have knowledge, let others light their candles with it.
Churchill, Winston
Knowledge which is divorced from justice, may be called cunning rather than wisdom.
Cicero, Marcus T.
He who knows only his own side of the case, knows little of that.
Mill, John Stuart
All men by nature desire knowledge.
Aristotle
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
I find that a great part of the information I have, was acquired by looking up something and finding something else on the way.
Adams, Franklin P.
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
I have tried to know absolutely nothing about a great many things, and I have succeeded fairly well.
Benchley, Robert
He who knows little quickly tells it.
Proverb, Italian
Be curious always! For knowledge will not acquire you: you must acquire it.
Back, Sudie
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
Knowledge is the small part of ignorance that we arrange and classify.
Bierce, Ambrose
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
Everything has been said yet few have taken advantage of it. Since all our knowledge is essentially banal, it can only be of value to minds that are not.
Vaneigem, Raoul
When you cease to strive to understand, then you will know without understanding.
Proverb, Chinese
Knowledge without practice is like a glass eye, all for show, and nothing for use.
Swinnock
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
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
Knowledge of what is does not open the door directly to what should be.
Einstein, Albert
He who does not know one thing knows another
Proverb, Kenyan
The greater our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds.
Kennedy, John F.
Far better is it to know everything of a little than a little of everything.
Pickering
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''
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
The greater the knowledge, the greater the doubt.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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.
If we value the pursuit of knowledge, we must be free to follow wherever that search may lead us. The free mind is not a barking dog, to be tethered on a ten-foot chain.
Adlai E. Stevenson Jr.
It's a dangerous thing to think we know everything.
Kuehler, Jack
Convinced myself, I seek not to convince.
Edgar Allan Poe
Those who think they know it all are very annoying to those of us who do.
Mueller, Robert K.
Knowledge is a polite word for dead but not buried imagination.
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)
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
And all your future lies beneath your hat.
Oldham, John
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. [King Solomon]
Bible
