Knowledge is a weight added to conscience.
Ignorance is the curse of God, Knowledge the wing wherewith we fly to heaven.
You can never know everything, and part of what you know is always wrong. Perhaps even the most important part. A portion of wisdom lies in knowing that. A portion of courage lies in going on anyway.
What is now proved was once only imagined.
We can only know that we know nothing. And that’s the highest degree of human wisdom.[Знать мы можем только то, что ничего не знаем. И это высшая степень человеческой премудрости.]
True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.
The interpretation of dreams is the royal road to a knowledge of the unconscious activities of the mind.
The goal to be reached is the mind’s insight into what knowing is. Impatience asks for the impossible, wants to reach the goal without the means of getting there. The length of the journey has to be borne with, for every moment is necessary.
No man’s knowledge here can go beyond his experience.
Learning does not consist only of knowing what we must or we can do, but also of knowing what we could do and perhaps should not do.
Just because some of us can read and write and do a little math, that doesn’t mean we deserve to conquer the Universe.
If a man knows more than others, he becomes lonely.
