Motivational Quotes

Knowledge

I know myself as a human entity; the scene, so to speak, or thoughts are affection; and am sensible of certain doubleness by which I can stand as remote from myself as from another. However intense my experience, I am conscious of the presence and criticism of a part of me, which, as it were, is no part of me, but spectator, sharing no experience, but taking note of it, and that is no more I than it is you.
- Thoreau, Henry David

Johnson, Samuel

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

We have an opportunity for everyone in the world to have access to all the world's information. This has never before been possible. Why is ubiquitous information so profound? It's a tremendous equalizer. Information is power.
Eric Schmidt

5.
Knowledge and human power are synonymous.
Bacon, Francis

Shakespeare, William

Proclaim not all thou knowest, all thou knowest, all thou hast, nor all thou cans't.
Franklin, Benjamin

12.
It seems to me that man is made to act rather than to know: the principles of things escape our most persevering researches.
Frederick The Great, (Frederick II)

13.
Nothing is too small to know, and nothing too big to attempt.
Van Horne, William

14.
Today knowledge has power. It controls access to opportunity and advancement.
Drucker, Peter F.

15.
One secures the gold of the spirit when he finds himself.
Bristol, Claude M.

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

21.
Knowledge is the small part of ignorance that we arrange and classify.
Bierce, Ambrose

22.

Socrates

Knowledge conquered by labor becomes a possession -- a property entirely our own.
Smiles, Samuel

I want, by understanding myself, to understand others. I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.
Mansfield, Katherine

25.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. [King Solomon]
Bible

26.
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

27.
The tree of knowledge is not the tree of life! And yet can we cast out of our spirits all the good or evil poured into them by so many learned generations? Ignorance cannot be learned.
Nerval, Gerard De

28.
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.

29.
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''

30.
Knowledge must come through action; you can have no test which is not fanciful, save by trial.
Sophocles

31.
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

32.
The desire of knowledge, like the thirst for riches, increases ever with the acquisition of it.
Sterne, Laurence

Mankind have a great aversion to intellectual labor; but even supposing knowledge to be easily attainable, more people would be content to be ignorant than would take even a little trouble to acquire it.
Samuel Johnson

36.
How do you know so much about everything? was asked of a very wise and intelligent man; and the answer was By never being afraid or ashamed to ask questions as to anything of which I was ignorant.
Abbott, John

37.
Without wisdom, knowledge is either useless or destructive.

38.
The end of learning is to know God, and out of that knowledge to love Him and imitate Him.
Milton, John

39.
He who knows little quickly tells it.
Proverb, Italian

40.
I honestly believe it is better to know nothing than to know what ain't so.
Billings, Josh
