The whole Twitter phenomenon is really indicative of what's happening in this country. And I say this in condemnation of myself as much as anyone else - we are growing into a nation that has no time desire or capacity for truth. All we can handle is 140 characters of knowledge.

Aging is an inevitable process. I surely wouldn't want to grow younger. The older you become the more you know your bank account of knowledge is much richer.

The most important thing I learned as a foreign correspondent in about 80 countries is that it takes a very shallow knowledge of history to think that there are solutions to most problems.

There was the best teachers from the Czech Philharmonic highly dedicated people some of the best musicians in the world passing on the knowledge about the country about the principles and about the music.

Perhaps the prevalence of pedantry may be largely accounted for by the common error of thinking that because useful knowledge should be remembered any kind of knowledge that is at all worth learning should be remembered too.

If we want to implement climate protection worldwide countries like Germany which are capable of developing new technologies will have to hand over some of their knowledge. We can't expect to have our cake and eat it too.

I am excited to bring my deep knowledge passion and expertise of soccer in this country to The New York Cosmos. They truly represent where this sport is headed on a national and international level and I want to make history with them.

One of the things that makes our military the best in the world is the certain knowledge of each soldier sailor airman and Marine that they can always count on their comrades should they need help - that they will never be abandoned.

To that class we may leave it to refine the vernacular dialects of the country to enrich those dialects with terms of science borrowed from the Western nomenclature and to render them by degrees fit vehicles for conveying knowledge to the great mass of the population.

That the state of knowledge in any country will exert a directive influence on the general system of instruction adopted in it is a principle too obvious to require investigation.

Surely if knowledge is valuable it can never be good policy in a country far wealthier than Tuscany to allow a genius like Mr. Dalton's to be employed in the drudgery of elementary instruction.

In the past I used to counter any such notions by asking myself: 'Would you really want President Hattersley?' I now find that possibility rather cheers me up. With his chubby Dickensian features and his knowledge of T.H. Green and other harmless leftish political classics Hattersley might not be such a bad thing after all.

We give you the facts. I told you information is power - knowledge is power. We can't be in an ideological battle to redeem the soul of this country if we don't have the facts.

Science knows no country because knowledge belongs to humanity and is the torch which illuminates the world.

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.

All science requires mathematics. The knowledge of mathematical things is almost innate in us. This is the easiest of sciences a fact which is obvious in that no one's brain rejects it for laymen and people who are utterly illiterate know how to count and reckon.

On the same line of reasoning if Australians were to be Australians or rather if Australians were as separate from any other nation as Australia from any other land there would be no jealousy between them on England's account.

There tends to be a jealousy in England towards countries that are successful.

We had periodic crises in this country when the technical intelligence didn't support the policy. We had the bomber gap the missile gap.

There are whole precincts of voters in this country whose united intelligence does not equal that of one representative American woman.

For 13 to be unlucky would require there to be some kind of cosmic intelligence that counts things that humans count and that also makes certain things happen on certain dates or in certain places according to whether the number 13 'is involved' or not (whatever 'is involved' might mean).

I believe that reforming our intelligence community is one of the most important things that we can do in order to ensure that our country is in fact safer stronger and wiser.

We worked to develop our own operations to advance U.S. counterterrorism objectives by penetrating terrorist safe havens and collecting intelligence that would inform policy and enable our own operations.

I am sure that in Canada the people appreciate this principle and the general intelligence which prevails over that country is such that I am sure there is no danger of a reactionary policy ever finding a response in the hearts of any considerable number of our people.
