Quotations regarding 'Knowledge'

Choose a letter: 
In rating ease of description as very important, we are essentially asserting a belief in quantitative knowledge - a belief that most of the key questions in our world sooner or later demand answers to 'by how much?' rather than merely to 'in which direction?'
John Tuley, -
Knowledge once gained casts a light beyond its own immediate boundaries.
John Tyndall, English Physicist (1820-1893)
If the Great Way perishes there will morality and duty. When cleverness and knowledge arise great lies will flourish. When relatives fall out with one another there will be filial duty and love. When states are in confusion there will be faithful servants.
Lao Tzu, Philosopher
Those who have knowledge, don't predict. Those who predict, don't have knowledge.
Lao Tzu, Philosopher
The best thing that can come with success is the knowledge that it is nothing to long for.
Liv Ullmann, Norwegian Actress (1938-  )
Everything has been said yet few have taken advantage of it. Since all our knowledge is essentially banal, it can only be of value to minds that are not.
Raoul Vaneigem, Belgian Philosopher
I have discovered in 20 years of moving around a ballpark, that the knowledge of the game is usually in inverse proportion to the price of the seats.
Bill Veeck, American Businessman (1914-1986)
Pain is the root of knowledge.
Simone Veil, French Lawyer (1927-  )
Patriotism is voluntary. It is a feeling of loyalty and allegiance that is the result of knowledge and belief. A patriot shows their their patriotism through their actions, by their choice.
Jesse Ventura, American Politician (1952-  )
I believe patriotism comes from the heart. Patriotism is voluntary. It is a feeling of loyalty and allegiance that is the result of knowledge and belief.
Jesse Ventura, American Politician (1952-  )
He surprised me by his familiarity with details of movements and battles which I did not suppose had come to his knowledge. As he kept me talking for over half an hour, I flattered myself that what I had to say interested him.
Henry Villard, American Journalist (1835-1900)
Where there is shouting, there is no true knowledge.
Leonardo da Vinci, Italian Artist (1452-1519)
All our knowledge has its origins in our perceptions.
Leonardo da Vinci, Italian Artist (1452-1519)
There was the best teachers from the Czech Philharmonic, highly dedicated people, some of the best musicians in the world passing on the knowledge about the country, about the principles, and about the music.
Miroslav Vitous, Czechoslovakian Musician (1947-  )
That was really so upsetting when you are trying to pass on some very serious knowledge and be basically, treated worse than a student coming off the street because his father pays the tuition. Come on. Give me a break. This is no school. This is a joke.
Miroslav Vitous, Czechoslovakian Musician (1947-  )
They taught us because they wanted to pass the knowledge on and educate young musicians. It was not because they had to teach because they failed as musicians. There is a huge difference in the reasons why someone is teaching and what they can offer and what they cannot offer.
Miroslav Vitous, Czechoslovakian Musician (1947-  )
I had a vision how it should sound and I put all my knowledge into this product and it is a fantastic product. People still tell me that I have the best musical thing there.
Miroslav Vitous, Czechoslovakian Musician (1947-  )
It is an infantile superstition of the human spirit that virginity would be thought a virtue and not the barrier that separates ignorance from knowledge.
Voltaire, French Writer (1694-1778)
All men are born with a nose and ten fingers, but no one was born with a knowledge of God.
Voltaire, French Writer (1694-1778)
Now, occultism is not like mystic faculty, and it very seldom works in harmony either with business aptitude in the things of ordinary life or with a knowledge of the canons of evidence in its own sphere.
Arthur E. Waite, -
