Great minds are always feared by lesser minds.
Dan Brown
Confidence is ignorance. If you’re feeling cocky, it’s because there’s something you don’t know.
Eoin Colfer
The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.
Daniel J. Boorstin
Knowing too much of your future is never a good thing.
Rick Riordan
For me, I am driven by two main philosophies: know more today about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You’d be surprised how far that gets you.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in a while, or the light won’t come in.
Alan Alda
It is the absence of facts that frightens people: the gap you open, into which they pour their fears, fantasies, desires.
Hilary Mantel
Wisdom cannot be imparted. Wisdom that a wise man attempts to impart always sounds like foolishness to someone else … Knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. One can find it, live it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it.
Hermann Hesse
Write what you know. That should leave you with a lot of free time.
Howard Nemerov
The possession of knowledge does not kill the sense of wonder and mystery. There is always more mystery.
Anais Nin
