Aristotle
-

-
As the traveler who has once been from home is wiser than he who has never left his own doorstep, so a knowledge of one other culture should sharpen our ability to scrutinize more steadily, to appreciate more lovingly, our own.
Margaret Mead
-
Does knowledge rest on construction in the sense that it only functions because the knowing system is operatively closed, therefore: because it can maintain no operative contact with the outside world; and because it therefore remains dependent, for everything that it constructs, on its own distinction between self-reference and allo-reference?
Niklas Luhmann

There is a major difference between theoretical knowledge and
experiential knowledge. Academics think they know how the economy
should work; successful business owners know how the economy does
work. They have been there and done it. Our government should be
turning to those who have experiential knowledge when it comes to
solving our fiscal problems. They would realize that many of their
current policies may sound good but don’t work in the real world
and must be abandoned. They would spend less and live within their
means. They would be promoting the creation of more entrepreneurs
and business owners, instead of hiring more bureaucrats, consulting
more academics, and enlisting more lawyers to harass and prosecute
the true wealth creators of this nation.

Emile Coue
-
The truth is that anyone, almost anyone, who receives the Nobel Prize has some indirect knowledge of one sort or another that they may be a candidate.
James Rothman
-
It has often and confidently been asserted, that man's origin can never be known: but 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.
Charles Darwin
