There are few things that are so unpardonably neglected in our country as poker. The upper class knows very little about it. Now and then you find ambassadors who have sort of a general knowledge of the game, but the ignorance of the people is fearful. Why, I have known clergymen, good men, kind-hearted, liberal, sincere, and all that, who did not know the meaning of a flush. It is enough to make one ashamed of the species.
~knowledge sayings by Mark Twain
Everything you read in newspapers is absolutely true, except for that rare story of which you happen to have first-hand knowledge.
~inspirational sayings about Media Journalism quotes by Erwin Knoll
Many people, other than the authors, contribute to the making of a book, from the first person who had the bright idea of alphabetic writing through the inventor of movable type to the lumberjacks who felled the trees that were pulped for its printing. It is not customary to acknowledge the trees themselves, though their commitment is total.
~knowledge quotes by Forsyth and Rada, Machine Learning
The really frightening thing about middle age is the knowledge that you'll grow out of it.
~famous quotes about Death by Doris Day
Of course there's a lot of knowledge in universities: the freshmen bring a little in; the seniors don't take much away, so knowledge sort of accumulates.
~knowledge sayings by Abbott Lawrence Lowell
Poverty, race, ethnicity and immigration status are not in themselves determinative of student achievement. Demography is not destiny. The amount of melanin in a student's skin, the home country of her antecedents, the amount of money in the family bank account, are not the inexorable determinants of academic success. The evidence introduced at trial demonstrates that these negative life experiences can be overcome by public schools with sufficient resources well deployed. It is the clear policy of the state, as formulated by the Regents and S.E.D. [State Education Department], that all children can attain the substantive knowledge and master the skills expected of high school graduates. The court finds that the city's at-risk children are capable of seizing the opportunity for a sound basic education if they are given sufficient resources

~knowledge sayings by Isaac Asimov
The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.
~knowledge sayings by Isaac Asimov, Isaac Asimov's Book of Science and Nature Quotations, 1988
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love I gain nothing Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away...And now these things remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love
~inspirational sayings about Love quotes by Corinthians
Ever since we crawled out of that primordial slime, that's been our unifying cry, More light. Sunlight. Torchlight. Candlelight. Neon, incandescent lights that banish the darkness from our caves to illuminate our roads, the insides of our refrigerators. Big floods for the night games at Soldier's Field. Little tiny flashlights for those books we read under the covers when we're supposed to be asleep. Light is more than watts and footcandles. Light is metaphor. Light is knowledge, light is life, light is light.
~knowledge quotes by Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
Man is never alone. Acknowledged or unacknowledged, that which dreams through him is always there to support him from within.
~famous quotes about Self by Laurence van der Post
Manners must adorn knowledge and smooth its way in the world, without them it is like a great rough diamond, very well in a closet by way of curiosity, and also for its intrinsic value; but most prized when polished.
~knowledge sayings by Lord Chesterfield

~knowledge sayings by James Dean
When you re-read a classic you do not see in the book more than you did before. You see more in you than there was before.
~good sayings about Literature by Clifton Fadiman
One doesn't know, till one is a bit at odds with the world, how much one's friends who believe in one rather generously, mean to one.

He who makes a paradise of his bread makes a hell of his hunger.

The longer I live the more I see that I am never wrong about anything, and that all the pains that I have so humbly taken to verify my notions have only wasted my time.
~knowledge quotes by George Bernard Shaw
