Knowledge
Knowledge is a familiarity, awareness, or understanding of someone or something, such as facts, information, descriptions, or skills, which is acquired through experience or education by perceiving, discovering, or learning.
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).
Knowledge
Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information upon it.
Samuel Johnson, reported in James Boswell, Life of Samuel Johnson (1775). Quote reported in Hoyt's New Cyclopedia Of Practical Quotations (1922), p. 419-23.
Knowledge
If you can look into the seeds of time,
And say which grain will grow and which will not;
Speak then to me.
William Shakespeare, Macbeth (1605), Act I, scene 3, line 58.
