Knowledge is not simply another commodity. On the contrary.
Knowledge is never used up. It increases by diffusion and grows by dispersion.
View quotes by Daniel BoorstinKnowledge of the self is the mother of all
knowledge. So it is incumbent on me to know my self, to know it completely, to know its minutiae, its characteristics, its subtleties, and its very atoms.
View quotes by Kahlil GibranKnowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which
knowledge gives.
View quotes by James MadisonIf
knowledge is power, clandestine
knowledge is power squared; it can be withheld, exchanged, and leveraged.
View quotes by Letty CottinFrom the level of pragmatic, everyday
knowledge to modern natural science, the
knowledge of nature derives from man's primary coming to grips with nature; at the same time it reacts back upon the system of social labour and stimulates its development.
View quotes by Jurgen HabermasSorrow is
knowledge, those that know the most must mourn the deepest, the tree of
knowledge is not the tree of life.
View quotes by Lord ByronThe senses collect the surface facts of matter... It was sensation; when memory came, it was experience; when mind acted, it was
knowledge; when mind acted on it as
knowledge, it was thought.
View quotes by Ralph Waldo EmersonI ask you to look both ways. For the road to a
knowledge of the stars leads through the atom; and important
knowledge of the atom has been reached through the stars.
View quotes by Sir Arthur EddingtonIt is now several months since I promised to give you my reasons for preferring the Bible as a schoolbook to all other compositions. Before I state my arguments, I shall assume the five following propositions:
1 . That Christianity is the only true and perfect religion; and that in proportion as mankind adopts its principles and obeys its precepts they will be wise and happy.
2. That a better
knowledge of this religion is to be acquired by reading the Bible than in any other way.
3. That the Bible contains more
knowledge necessary to man in his present state than any other book in the world.
4. That
knowledge is most durable, and religious instruction most useful, when imparted in early life.
5. That the Bible, when not read in schools, is seldom read in any subsequent period of life.
- Benjamin Rush, Essays, pp. 93-113, 'A Defence of the Use of the Bible as a School Book'.
View quotes by Benjamin RushCourage is a special kind of
knowledge: the
knowledge of how to fear what ought to be feared and how not to fear what ought no to be feared.
View quotes by David Ben-GurionWisdom is the right use of
knowledge. To know is not to be wise. Many men know a great deal, and are all the greater fools for it. There is no fool so great a fool as a knowing fool. But to know how to use
knowledge is to have wisdom.
View quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon Zeal will do more than
knowledge.
View quotes by William HazlittI have taken all

View quotes by Woody AllenTo know that we know what we know, and to know that we do not know what we do not know, that is true
knowledge.

knowledge, don't predict. Those who predict, don't have
knowledge.
