I had a non-existent knowledge of Queen Victoria's early years. Like everyone else I thought of her as an old lady dressed in black. My mom had told me about her though that she had a very loving relationship with Albert that they had lots of kids and that he died young.

In a world in which the total of human knowledge is doubling about every ten years our security can rest only on our ability to learn.

The implications of these considerations justify the statement that all empirically verifiable knowledge even the commonsense knowledge of everyday life - involves implicitly if not explicitly systematic theory in this sense.

You can do one of two things. You can bury you head in the sand and believe what everyone tells you - that you will always be that young that thin and that fabulous. Or you can use all the things you have - talent contacts knowledge - and do something different.

Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. That's what we're doing.

Every mind was made for growth for knowledge and its nature is sinned against when it is doomed to ignorance.

It's just us trying to start a movement where everybody passes on a bit of cooking knowledge. We estimate that one person can potentially affect 180 others very quickly so we're just trying to spread the word.

At each increase of knowledge as well as on the contrivance of every new tool human labour becomes abridged.

You can do anything you think you can. This knowledge is literally the gift of the gods for through it you can solve every human problem. It should make of you an incurable optimist. It is the open door.

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.

You don't need an explanation for everything Recognize that there are such things as miracles - events for which there are no ready explanations. Later knowledge may explain those events quite easily.

There is so I believe in the essence of everything something that we cannot call learning. There is my friend only a knowledge - that is everywhere.

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.

Do not share the knowledge with which you have been blessed with everyone in general as you do with some people in particular and know that there are some men in whom Allah may He he glorified has placed hidden secrets which they are forbidden to reveal.

Never stop learning knowledge doubles every fourteen months.

I'm hungry for knowledge. The whole thing is to learn every day to get brighter and brighter. That's what this world is about. You look at someone like Gandhi and he glowed. Martin Luther King glowed. Muhammad Ali glows. I think that's from being bright all the time and trying to be brighter.

Every addition to true knowledge is an addition to human power.
