Socrates on knowledge

The unexamined life is not worth living.

Children today are tyrants. They contradict their parents, gobble their
food, and tyrannize their teachers.

My advice to you is to get married. If you find a good wife you’ll be happy; if not you’ll become a philosopher.

Information is not knowledge.

An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.

Benjamin Franklin1706–1790Ben Franklin, as quoted in Exercises in English Grammar (1909) by M. A. Morse.

There are three things extremely hard: steel, a diamond, and to know one’s self.
