“Trying to find this industry's tendency to celebrate the physical is a waste of time. So I'm happy to play the game. But I am also thirsty for input. I'm not a dunce whose only skill is knowing how to take a photograph, you know? And at the end of the day, I think it makes me slightly less replaceable.” ThinkingKnowsTryingEndsPlayGamesKnowingIndustrySkillsWastePhotographTendenciesCelebrateThe End Of The DayWasting TimeInputThirstyAnd At The End Of The DayDunces Author:Olivia Wilde
“The most valuable thing a teacher can impart to children is not knowledge and understanding per se but a longing for knowledge and understanding, and an appreciation for intellectual values, whether they be artistic, scientific, or moral. It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge. Most teachers waste their time by asking questions that are intended to discover what a pupil does not know, whereas the true art of questioning is to discover what the pupil does know or is capable of knowing.” KnowsChildrenDoeArtJoyValuesUnderstandingMoralCreativeKnowingTeacherExpressionWasteCapableIntellectualAskingLongingAppreciationValuableSupremeArtisticQuestioningPupilsImpartAsking QuestionsValuable ThingsCreative ExpressionKnowledge And Understanding Author:Albert Einstein

“Gradually, the night stumbled as if stunned and wandering aimlessly into an overcast day -- limped through the wilderland of transition as though there were no knowing where the waste of darkness ended and the ashes of light began. The low clouds seemed full of grief -- tense and uneasy with accumulated woe -- and yet affectless, unable to rain, as if the air clenched itself too hard for tears. And through the dawn, Atiaran and Covenant moved heavily, unevenly, like pieces of a broken lament.” IfsHardLightNightGriefDarknessKnowingPiecesAirTearsBrokenWasteLowsRainMovedCloudsWanderDawnTransitionAshesWoeTenseCovenantUneasyLamentStunnedOvercastWandering Aimlessly Book:Lord Foul's Bane Source: Lord Foul's Bane

“And we shall most likely be defeated, and you will most likely be victors in the contest, if you learn so to order your lives as not to abuse or waste the reputation of your ancestors, knowing that to a man who has any self-respect, nothing is more dishonourable than to be honoured, not for his own sake, but on account of the reputation of his ancestors.” IfsMenSelfOrderKnowingWasteAbuseAccountsSakeReputationSelf RespectAncestorDefeatedPlatoContests Book:The Complete Plato Source: The Complete Plato
“Knowing about God is crucially important for the living of our lives...
