Knowledge Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Knowledge

1.
To grow wiser means to learn to know better and better the faults to which this instrument with which we feel and judge can be subject.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

2.
Search not to find things too deeply hid; Nor try to know things whose knowledge is forbid.
Denham, Sir John

3.
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

4.
Knowledge, humbles a great person, astonishes the common, and puffs up the small.
Saying

5.
Never by reflection, but only by doing is self-knowledge possible to one.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

6.
The greater our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds.
Kennedy, John F.

7.
Knowledge and timber shouldn't be much used till they are seasoned.
Oliver Wendell Holmes

8.
A knowledge of men is the prime secret of business success.
Mills, Darius Ogden

9.
Knowledge without practice is like a glass eye, all for show, and nothing for use.
Swinnock

10.
The most excellent and divine counsel, the best and most profitable advertisement of all others, but the least practiced, is to study and learn how to know ourselves. This is the foundation of wisdom and the highway to whatever is good. God, Nature, the wise, the world, preach man, exhort him both by word and deed to the study of himself.
Charron, Pierre

11.
Convinced myself, I seek not to convince.
Edgar Allan Poe

12.
Every animal knows more than you do.
Proverb, Native American

13.
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.

14.
Of a truth, Knowledge is power, but it is a power reined by scruple, having a conscience of what must be and what may be; whereas Ignorance is a blind giant who, let him but wax unbound, would make it a sport to seize the pillars that hold up the long-wrought fabric of human good, and turn all the places of joy as dark as a buried Babylon.
Eliot, George

15.
People are difficult to govern because they have too much knowledge.
Lao-tzu

16.
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

17.
The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.
Socrates

18.
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

19.
Our treasure lies in the beehive of our knowledge. We are perpetually on the way thither, being by nature winged insects and honey gatherers of the mind.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

20.
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

21.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. [King Solomon]
Bible

22.
The one self-knowledge worth having is to know one's own mind.
Bradley, Francis H.

23.
Boys, I may not know much, but I know chicken shit from chicken salad.
Johnson, Lyndon B.

24.
Knowledge is a process of piling up facts; wisdom lies in their simplification.
Fischer, Martin H.

25.
Knowledge is that which, next to virtue, truly raises one person above another.
Addison, Joseph

26.
Knowledge is ancient error reflecting on its youth.
Picabia, Francis

27.
One secures the gold of the spirit when he finds himself.
Bristol, Claude M.

28.
It not knowing what to do, it's doing what you know.
Robbins, Anthony

29.
All men by nature desire knowledge.
Aristotle

30.
Who knows most believes least.
Proverb

31.
To despise our own species is the price we must often pay for knowledge of it.
Colton, Charles Caleb

32.
It is disgraceful to live as a stranger in one's country, and be an alien in any matter that affects our welfare.
Manutius

33.
The desire of knowledge, like the thirst for riches, increases ever with the acquisition of it.
Sterne, Laurence

34.
True knowledge lies in knowing how to live.
Gracian, Baltasar

35.
He who knows only his own side of the case, knows little of that.
Mill, John Stuart

36.
Knowledge is the only elegance.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

37.
It is no good to try to stop knowledge from going forward. Ignorance is never better than knowledge.
Enrico Fermi

38.
You never know yourself till you know more than your body.
Traherne, Thomas

39.
The conqueror and king in each one of us is the knower of truth. Let the knower awaken in us and drive the horses of the mind, emotions, and physical body on the pathway which that king has chosen.
Arundale, George S.

40.
If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it.
Margaret Fuller

41.
Knowledge of what is does not open the door directly to what should be.
Einstein, Albert

42.
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.

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.
Know yourself, master yourself, conquest of self is most gratifying.

50.
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
