Arthur Helps
toil looks knowledge

We should lay up in our minds a store of goodly thoughts which will be a living treasure of knowledge always with us, and from which, at various times, and amidst all the shiftings of circumstances, we might be sure of drawing some comfort, guidance and sympathy.

Arthur Helps

In the meantime, the educated public continues to believe that Darwin has provided all the relevant answers by the magic formula of random mutations plus natural selection -quite unaware of the fact that random mutations turned out to be irrelevant and natural selection tautology.

Arthur Koestler
magic believe knowledge

If we are to survive, we must have ideas, vision, and courage. These things are rarely produced by committees. Everything that matters in our intellectual and moral life begins with an individual confronting his own mind and conscience in a room by himself.

Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.
learning courage knowledge

Liberalism regards all absolutes with profound skepticism, including both moral imperatives and final solutions... Insistence upon any particular solution is the mark of an ideologue.

Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.
freedom faith knowledge

We forfeit three-quarters of ourselves in order to be like other... by Arthur Schopenhauer

We forfeit three-quarters of ourselves in order to be like other people.

Arthur Schopenhauer
philosophical inspirational knowledge

As the biggest library if it is in disorder is not as useful as a small but well-arranged one, so you may accumulate a vast amount of knowledge but it will be of far less value than a much smaller amount if you have not thought it over for yourself.

Arthur Schopenhauer
library may knowledge

We like to learn all we need from earlier generations, but we have to find out for ourselves what we need; nobody else can do that for us.

Asger Jorn
generations knowledge needs

Nothing is known in our profession by guess; and I do not believe, that from the first dawn of medical science to the present moment, a single correct idea has ever emanated from conjecture: it is right therefore, that those who are studying their profession should be aware that there is no short road to knowledge; and that observation on the diseased living, examination of the dead, and experiments upon living animals, are the only sources of true knowledge; and that inductions from these are the sole bases of legitimate theory.

Astley Cooper

Our feelings are our most genuine paths to knowledge. by Audre Lorde

Our feelings are our most genuine paths to knowledge.

Audre Lorde
emotional feelings knowledge

The question whether atoms exist or not... belongs rather to metaphysics. In chemistry we have only to decide whether the assumption of atoms is an hypothesis adapted to the explanation of chemical phenomena... whether a further development of the atomic hypothesis promises to advance our knowledge of the mechanism of chemical phenomena... I rather expect that we shall some day find, for what we now call atoms, a mathematico-mechanical explanation, which will render an account of atomic weight, of atomicity, and of numerous other properties of the so-called atoms.

August Kekule
science promise knowledge

Positivism is a theory of knowledge according to which the only kind of sound knowledge available to human kind is that if science grounded in observation.

Auguste Comte
sound science knowledge

The law is this: that each of our leading conceptions-each branch of our knowledge-passes successively through three different theoretical conditions: the Theological, or fictitious: the Metaphysical, or abstract; and the Scientific, or positive.

Auguste Comte
law science knowledge

In the final, the positive, state, the mind has given over the vain search after absolute notions, the origin and destination of the universe, and the causes of phenomena, and applies itself to the study of their laws - that is, their invariable relations of succession and resemblance. Reasoning and observation, duly combined, are the means of this knowledge. What is now understood when we speak of an explanation of facts is simply the establishment of a connection between single phenomena and some general facts.

Auguste Comte
science mean knowledge

During the last two centuries and a half, physical knowledge has been gradually made to rest upon a basis which it had not before. It has become mathematical. The question now is, not whether this or that hypothesis is better or worse to the pure thought, but whether it accords with observed phenomena in those consequences which can be shown necessarily to follow from it, if it be true

Augustus De Morgan
two science knowledge
I know you even under the skin. by Aulus Persius Flaccus

I know you even under the skin.

Aulus Persius Flaccus

Is then thy knowledge of no value, unless another know that thou... by Aulus Persius Flaccus

Is then thy knowledge of no value, unless another know that thou possessest that knowledge?

Aulus Persius Flaccus

A youth's knowledge is like a cheap shotgun-likely to do as much... by Austin O'Malley

A youth's knowledge is like a cheap shotgun-likely to do as much damage to the owner as to the game.

Austin O'Malley
