It's a wonderful profession and it opens lots of doors and I think it's quite right that people can accuse actors and actresses of being dilettante but you learn on every job whatever it is the process moves you on in some way and yeah I want to expand my knowledge of our existence I suppose.

We read deeply for varied reasons most of them familiar: that we cannot know enough people profoundly enough that we need to know ourselves better that we require knowledge not just of self and others but of the way things are.

As a physician I understand how important it is to collect data on people so we can understand what's happening with them. I will be in the position to help enable that knowledge.

And that's what I truly believe that we're doing when we're advancing scientific knowledge is we're someday making the world better. Not only for our children but for all people after that.

It's clear that people are going to download media files and they're going to talk to each other and they're going to exchange information and knowledge and so forth. So this system logic is basically what you bounce off of.

Readership was high and very attentive. It was people's only source of knowledge about the world.

Do you remember when you found out you wouldn't live forever? People don't talk about this but everybody had to go through it because you're not born with that knowledge.

I was one of the first generations to watch television. TV exposes people to news to information to knowledge to entertainment. How is it bad?

Many people make the mistake of confusing information with knowledge. They are not the same thing. Knowledge involves the interpretation of information. Knowledge involves listening.

Knowledge of other people's beliefs and ways of thinking must be used to build bridges not to create conflicts.

I thought they may have presumed too much knowledge of certain things for people who are not comedians. Like Montreal. A comic understands what it is and its importance but someone else may not know about it.

Real-life people are often the hardest to play people that you recreate who have actually lived because you have to live up to people's knowledge of those characters.

You go to college not only for the latest knowledge but also to meet people from different backgrounds. That's the genius of the American higher-education system compared with the Europeans'. We don't simply skim the elite.

Have you heard of this new thing called the internet? It's giving people new expectations. It's allowing them to become their own expert. Knowledge lies anxious at their fingertips. Gloss over the truth in your advertising and you'll quickly be dismissed as a poser.

My advice to women in general: Even if you're doing a nine-to-five job treat yourself like a boss. Not arrogant but be sure of what you want - and don't allow people to run anything for you without your knowledge.

Even though I'm a hype man myself I like the practicality of it all. People who understand how to turn a profit. At the end of the day this is still business so I'm looking for real practical knowledge of how to actually make money not necessarily raise it.

People live longer today than they ever have. They live happier lives have more knowledge more information. All this is the result of communications technology. How is any of that bad?

What can we put into the hands of people under oppressive regimes to help them? For me a big part of it is information knowledge - the ability to defeat propaganda by understanding it.

I have always liked the idea of going to print because a big part of what we are about is to disseminate knowledge throughout the world and not just to people who have broadband.

Since ancient times people from throughout Asia have brought to Japan their talents knowledge and energy helping to lay the basis for Japan's existence as a country.

The new industries are brainy industries and so-called knowledge workers tend to like to be near other people who are the same. Think of the City of Hollywood. People cluster. This means you have winning regions such as London and Cambridge and losing regions. The people who want to be top lawyers in Sunderland are hoovered up by London.

Human knowledge has been changing from the word go and people in certain respects behave more rationally than they did when they didn't have it. They spend less time doing rain dances and more time seeding clouds.

I wish I had known more firsthand about the concerns and problems of American businesspeople while I was a U.S. senator and later a presidential nominee. That knowledge would have made me a better legislator and a more worthy aspirant to the White House.

Knowledge may give weight but accomplishments give lustre and many more people see than weigh.
