Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.
George Bernard Shaw

Italian proverbs
The sheep that bleats is strangled by the wolf.
Beware of a silent dog and of still water.
Latin Proverbs

Jordan Peterson
Without education, we are in a horrible and deadly danger of taking educated people seriously.
G.K. Chesterton

Winston Churchill
Courage consists not in blindly overlooking danger, but in seeing it, and conquering it.
Jean Paul Richter
A little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but a little want of knowledge is also a dangerous thing.
Samuel Butler
People crushed by laws, have no hope but to evade power. If the laws are their enemies, they will be enemies to the law; and those who have most to hope and nothing to lose will always be dangerous.
Edmund Burke
