Truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established, that, unless we love the truth, we cannot know it.

Knowledge will give you power, but character respect. A philosopher will not believe what he sees because he is too busy speculating about what he does not see. Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored. Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world. Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice. You know more than you think you know, just as you know less than you want to know. The only normal people are the ones you don't know very well. If you want a new idea, read an old book. If a man knows more than others, he becomes lonely.
