Aristotle quotes on knowledge

36. All men by nature desire to know. An indication of this is the delight we take in our senses; for even apart from their usefulness they are loved for themselves; and above all others the sense of sight. For not only with a view to action, but even when we are not going to do anything, we prefer sight to almost everything else. The reason is that this, most of all the senses, makes us know and brings to light many differences between things.

64. With regard to excellence, it is not enough to know, but we must try to have and use it.

135. The educated differ from the uneducated as much as the living from the dead.

145. The one exclusive sign of thorough knowledge is the power of teaching.
