Harry Emerson Fosdick on knowledge

A man wrapped up in himself makes a very small bundle.

He who chooses the beginning of a road chooses the place it leads to. It is the means that determine the end.

One must have the adventurous daring to accept oneself as a bundle of possibilities and undertake the most interesting game in the world — making the most of one’s best.

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
