Alexandre Dumas on knowledge

A person who doubts himself is like a man who would enlist in the ranks of his enemies and bear arms against himself. He makes his failure certain by himself being the first person to be convinced of it.

Men’s minds are raised to the level of the women with whom they associate.

Pure love and suspicion cannot dwell together: at the door where the latter enters, the former makes its exit.

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
