'Tain't a knowin' kind of cattle
Thet is ketched with mouldy corn.
James Russell Lowell, The Biglow Papers, No. 1, line 3. Quote reported in Hoyt's New Cyclopedia Of Practical Quotations (1922), p. 419-23.

They never open their mouths without subtracting from the sum of human knowledge.
Thomas Brackett Reed, referring to two of his colleagues in the House of Representatives.—Samuel W. McCall, The Life of Thomas Brackett Reed, chapter 21, p. 248 (1914).
Knowledge
Manners must adorn knowledge, and smooth its way through the world. Like a great rough diamond, it may do very well in a closet by way of curiosity, and also for its intrinsic value; but it will never be worn, nor shine, if it is not polished.
Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield, Letters (July 1, 1748).
