Best Quotes about Knowledge
Knowledge without practice is like a glass eye, all for show, and nothing for use.
Swinnock
Only as you do know yourself can your brain serve you as a sharp and efficient tool. Know your failings, passions, and prejudices so you can separate them from what you see. Know also when you actually have thought through to the nature of the thing with which you are dealing and when you are not thinking at all.
Baruch, Bernard M.
One secures the gold of the spirit when he finds himself.
Bristol, Claude M.
No man knows less than the man who knows it all
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
It is part of our pedagogy to teach the operations of thinking, feeling, and willing so that they may be made conscious. For if we do not know the difference between an emotion and a thought, we will know very little. We need to understand the components (of emotions) at work... in order to free their hold.
Richards, Mary Caroline
I think knowing what you cannot do is more important than knowing what you can.
Ball, Lucille
There is much pleasure to be gained from useless knowledge.
Bertrand Russell
Knowledge is power, but enthusiasm pulls the switch.
Ball, Ivern
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
Only divine love bestows the keys of knowledge.
Rimbaud, Arthur
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
Every man gets a narrower and narrower field of knowledge in which he must be an expert in order to compete with other people. The specialist knows more and more about less and less and finally knows everything about nothing.
Lorenz, Konrad
Knowledge becomes evil if the aim be not virtuous.
Plato
Nothing is too small to know, and nothing too big to attempt.
Van Horne, William
An age is called Dark not because the light fails to shine, but because people refuse to see it.
Michener, James A.
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
You never know yourself till you know more than your body.
Traherne, Thomas
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
When a person acts without knowledge of what he thinks, feels, needs or wants, he does not yet have the option of choosing to act differently.
Moustakas, Clark
A superficial knowledge is not enough. It must be a knowledge capable of analyzing a situation quickly and making an immediate decision.
Robert, Cavett
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
Convinced myself, I seek not to convince.
Edgar Allan Poe
Knowledge is a treasure, but practice is the key to it.
Fuller, Thomas
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
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
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
Knowledge becomes wisdom only after it has been put to practical use.
There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance.
Socrates
Knowledge is not a passion from without the mind, but an active exertion of the inward strength, vigor and power of the mind, displaying itself from within.
Cudworth, Ralph J.
Know-how will surpass guess-how.
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
You have to believe in God before you can say there are things that man was not meant to know. I don't think there's anything man wasn't meant to know. There are just some stupid things that people shouldn't do.
Cronenberg, David
Every animal knows more than you do.
Proverb, Native American
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
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.
Search not to find things too deeply hid; Nor try to know things whose knowledge is forbid.
Denham, Sir John
The man who is too old to learn was probably always too old to learn.
Haskins, Caryl
Knowledge, without common sense, says Lee, is folly; without method, it is waste; without kindness, it is fanaticism; without religion, it is death. But with common sense, it is wisdom with method, it is power; with clarity, it is beneficence; with religion, it is virtue, and life, and peace.
Farrar, Austin
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.
Know yourself, master yourself, conquest of self is most gratifying.
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
Knowledge is proud that it knows so much; Wisdom is humble that it knows no more.
Cowper, William
Acquire new knowledge whilst thinking over the old, and you may become a teacher of others.
Confucius
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
Knowledge like timber shouldn't be mush use till they are seasoned.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
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''
Knowledge is the treasure, but judgment is the treasurer of the one who is wise.
Penn, William
Knowledge is the small part of ignorance that we arrange and classify.
Bierce, Ambrose
People are difficult to govern because they have too much knowledge.
Lao-tzu
