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.

The mathematical facts worthy of being studied are those which by their analogy with other facts are capable of leading us to the knowledge of a physical law.

A man can only attain knowledge with the help of those who possess it. This must be understood from the very beginning. One must learn from him who knows.

Scientific discovery and scientific knowledge have been achieved only by those who have gone in pursuit of it without any practical purpose whatsoever in view.

There's no question that as science knowledge and technology advance that we will attempt to do more significant things. And there's no question that we will always have to temper those things with ethics.

You don't need an explanation for everything Recognize that there are such things as miracles - events for which there are no ready explanations. Later knowledge may explain those events quite easily.

G is Grace the Flaming Star is the Torch of Reason. Those who possess this knowledge are indeed Illuminati.

We own almost all our knowledge not to those who have agreed but to those who have differed.

Sorrow is knowledge those that know the most must mourn the deepest the tree of knowledge is not the tree of life.

Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little and not those who know much who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.

Those who have knowledge don't predict. Those who predict don't have knowledge.

Obviously in dealing with a relationship sexuality has to be involved and jealousy and emotions like that. And I don't know I've always been intrigued by those emotions.

Those who are believed to be most abject and humble are usually most ambitious and envious.

Could it be that all those reports coming from our own intelligence that Bush ignored was right all along? Could it be that the UN was right all along?

In our society those who are in reality superior in intelligence can be accepted by their fellows only if they pretend they are not.

Would it not be much better to have a president who deliberately lied to the people because he thought a war was essential than to have one who was so dumb as to be taken in by intelligence agencies especially those who told him what he wanted to hear?

When I resigned I put the U.S. Government on notice that I'm going to stick to policy issues that I have no intention of going out and blowing the cover off of the intelligence operations that those are truly sensitive and they should not be exposed.

When I went on to write my next book Working With Emotional Intelligence I wanted to make a business case that the best performers were those people strong in these skills.

We know that there are unaccounted-for Scud and other ballistic missiles in Iraq. And part of the problem is that since 1998 there has been no way to even get minimal information about those programs except through intelligence means.

Ah! yes I know: those who see me rarely trust my word: I must look too intelligent to keep it.

I've done a lot of albums and I kinda know when I'm onto something that was inspirational for me to record and create and this was one of those projects where I really enjoyed making the album.

I'm kind of surprised that so many of those other books were almost exactly like mine. They even follow the form. There were some books that even copied the stamp. It shows so little imagination.

In those days it didn't take much imagination to come up with something that required great lyric development skills. You just thought of an experience that you might have gone through and write it down.

I certainly know there are people in positions of power in the business who lack imagination and perhaps as a result of that think of me as 'David'. But I wouldn't really want to work with those people you know?
