Best Quotes about Knowledge
Every animal knows more than you do.
Proverb, Native American
He knows the universe and does not know himself.
La Fontaine, Jean De
There's a theory, one I find persuasive, that the quest for knowledge is, at bottom, the search for the answer to the question: Where was I before I was born. In the beginning was what? Perhaps, in the beginning, there was a curious room, a room like this one, crammed with wonders; and now the room and all it contains are forbidden you, although it was made just for you, had been prepared for you since time began, and you will spend all your life trying to remember it.
Carter, Angela
Once thoroughly our own knowledge ceases to give us pleasure.
Ruskin, John
To know oneself, one should assert oneself. Psychology is action, not thinking about oneself. We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die.
Camus, Albert
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.
The knower and the known are one. Simple people imagine that they should see God as if he stood there and they here. This is not so. God and I, we are one in knowledge.
Eckhart, Meister
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.
None of us is as smart as all of us.
Eric Schmidt
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.
And all your future lies beneath your hat.
Oldham, John
Knowledge is a polite word for dead but not buried imagination.
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)
No man can reveal to you nothing but that which already lies half-asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.
Gibran, Kahlil
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
If people can be educated to see the lowly side of their own natures, it may be hoped that they will also learn to understand and to love their fellow men better. A little less hypocrisy and a little more tolerance towards oneself can only have good results in respect for our neighbor; for we are all too prone to transfer to our fellows the injustice and violence we inflict upon our own natures.
Jung, Carl
Knowledge of the world in only to be acquired in the world, and not in a closet.
Chesterfield, Lord
Some people drink deeply from the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.
Bright, Grant M.
He knows so little and knows it so fluently.
Glasgow, Ellen
When one is a stranger to oneself then one is estranged from others too.
Lindbergh, Anne Morrow
Those who think they know it all are very annoying to those of us who do.
Mueller, Robert K.
Knowledge is the most democratic source of power.
Toffler, Alvin
We live on an island surrounded by a sea of ignorance. As our island of knowledge grows, so does the shore of our ignorance.
Wheeler, John Archibald
Knowledge without practice is like a glass eye, all for show, and nothing for use.
Swinnock
In the advance of civilization, it is new knowledge which paves the way, and the pavement is eternal.
Whitney, W. R.
Only when he no longer knows what he is doing does the painter do good things.
Degas, Edgar
Knowledge conquered by labor becomes a possession -- a property entirely our own.
Smiles, Samuel
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
Know, first, who you are, and then adorn yourself accordingly.
Epictetus
Knowledge is the treasure, but judgment is the treasurer of the one who is wise.
Penn, William
Knowledge fills a large brain; it merely inflates a small one.
A wise man, when asked how he had learned so much about everything, replied: By never being ashamed or afraid to ask questions about anything of which I was ignorant.
Seldom if ever was knowledge given to keep, but always to impart. The grace of this rich jewel is lost in concealment.
Hall, Bishop
I want, by understanding myself, to understand others. I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.
Mansfield, Katherine
It not knowing what to do, it's doing what you know.
Robbins, Anthony
Many of us don't have to turn out the lights to be in the dark.
Knowledge becomes wisdom only after it has been put to practical use.
Without wisdom, knowledge is either useless or destructive.
To know yourself, see how others do, to know others look into your own heart.
Smiles, Sydney
The greater our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds.
Kennedy, John F.
Vague and mysterious forms of speech, and abuse of language, have so long passed for mysteries of science; and hard or misapplied words with little or no meaning have, by prescription, such a right to be mistaken for deep learning and height of speculation, that it will not be easy to persuade either those who speak or those who hear them, that they are but the covers of ignorance and hindrance of true knowledge.
Locke, John
If you want to know the taste of a pear, you must change the pear by eating it yourself. If you want to know the theory and methods of revolution, you must take part in revolution. All genuine knowledge originates in direct experience.
Zedong, Mao
Know yourself, master yourself, conquest of self is most gratifying.
Today knowledge has power. It controls access to opportunity and advancement.
Drucker, Peter F.
Knowledge is a treasure, but practice is the key to it.
Fuller, Thomas
Knowledge is like money: the more he gets, the more he craves.
Billings, Josh
The trouble with most folks ain't so much their ignorance as knowing so many things that ain't so.
Billings, Josh
Knowledge like timber shouldn't be mush use till they are seasoned.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
Become aware of internal, subjective, sub-verbal experiences, so that these experiences can be brought into the world of abstraction, of conversation, of naming, etc. with the consequence that it immediately becomes possible for a certain amount of control to be exerted over these hitherto unconscious and uncontrollable processes.
Maslow, Abraham H.
A man can only attain knowledge with the help of those who possess it. This must be understood from the very beginning. One must learn from him who knows.
Gurdjieff, George
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
