George Eliot on knowledge

What do we live for, if it is not to make life less difficult for each other?

Blessed is the man, who having nothing to say, abstains from giving wordy evidence of the fact.

An election is coming. Universal peace is declared and the foxes have a sincere interest in prolonging the lives of the poultry.

One thing only I know, and that is that I know nothing.

Socrates470–399 BC

Information is not knowledge.

There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance.

Socrates470–399 BCII: xxxi. Original Greek: ἓν μόνον ἀγαθὸν εἶναι, τὴν ἐπιστήμην, καὶ ἓν μόνον κακόν, τὴν ἀμαθίαν

• Good & Evil
