Aiden Wilson Tozer quote: "The world is perishing for lack of the knowledge of God and..."
The world is perishing for lack of the knowledge of God and the Church is famishing for want of His Presence. Aiden Wilson Tozer
Keats mourned that the rainbow, which as a boy had been for him a magic thing, had lost its glory because the physicists had found it resulted merely from the refraction of the sunlight by the raindrops. Yet knowledge of its causation could not spoil the rainbow for me. I am sure that it is not given to man to be omniscient. There will always be something left to know, something to excite the imagination of the poet and those attuned to the great world in which they live (p. 64) Robert Frost
Under these conditions it is no wonder, that the movement of atheists, which declares religion to be just a deliberate illusion, invented by power-seeking priests, and which has for the pious belief in a higher Power nothing but words of mockery, eagerly makes use of progressive scientific knowledge and in a presumed unity with it, expands in an ever faster pace its disintegrating action on all nations of the earth and on all social levels. I do not need to explain in any more detail that... Max Planck
There was a time in the ancient world - a very long time - in which the central cultural problem must have seemed an inexhaustible outpouring of books. Where to put them all? How to organize them on the groaning shelves? How to hold the profusion of knowledge in one's head? The loss of this plenitude would have been virtually inconceivable to anyone living in its midst. Then, not all at once but with the cumulative force of a mass extinction, the whole enterprise came to an end. What looked... Stephen Greenblatt
Atheism is more than just the knowledge that gods do not exist, and that religion is either a mistake or a fraud. Atheism is an attitude, a frame of mind that looks at the world objectively, fearlessly, always trying to understand all things as a part of nature. Carl Sagan
If you can develop this ability to see what you look at, to understand its meaning, to readjust your knowledge to this new information, you can continue to learn and to grow as long as you live and you’ll have a wonderful time doing it. Eleanor Roosevelt
Audrey Hepburn quote: "...walk with the knowledge that you are never alone."
...walk with the knowledge that you are never alone. Audrey Hepburn
Nothing is a greater obstacle to our progress in knowledge, than a bad performance of a celebrated author; because, before we instruct we must begin with undeceiving. Charles de Secondat
Jenny Holzer quote: "With you inside me comes the knowledge of my death."
With you inside me comes the knowledge of my death. Jenny Holzer
She used to read to us without pity; forcing words, lies, other folks' habits, whole lives upon us two, sitting trapped and ignorant underneath her voice. She washed us in a river of make-believe, burned us with a lot of knowledge we didn't necessarily need to know. Alice Walker
Don DeLillo quote: "Every advance in knowledge and technique is matched by a new..."
Every advance in knowledge and technique is matched by a new kind of death, a new strain. Death adapts, like a viral agent. Don DeLillo
I do not rest on the broad upland of a system that includes a series of sure statements about the absolutes, but on a narrow, rocky ridge between the gulfs where there is no sureness of expressible knowledge but [only] the certainty of meeting what remains, undisclosed. Martin Buber
A blank space on a form, the missing page, a void, a hole in your knowledge of someone--it's still some real *thing*. It exists. You don't get to fill it in with whatever you want. Barbara Kingsolver
We women, when we’re searching for a meaning to our lives or for the path of knowledge, always identify with one of four classic archetypes. The Virgin (and I’m not speaking here of a sexual virgin) is the one whose search springs from her complete independence, and everything she learns is the fruit of her ability to face challenges alone. The Martyr finds her way to self-knowledge through pain, surrender and suffering. The Saint finds her true reason for living in unconditional love and in... Paulo Coelho
David Herbert Lawrence quote: "Life is a traveling to the edge of knowledge, then a leap taken."
Life is a traveling to the edge of knowledge, then a leap taken. David Herbert Lawrence
