More From Albert Einstein

The saying that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing is, to my mind, a very dangerous adage. if knowledge is real and genuine, i do not believe that it is other than a very valuable posession, however infinitesimal its quantity may be. indeed, if a little knowledge is dangerous, where is a man who has so much as to be out of danger?
Real Believe Knowledge
Deep knowledge is not knowledge of the thing itself, but knowledge of a thing like the thing. then, you gain not one knowledge, but two knowledges. of the thing. and of the original thing with is like the thing. which is the barbarism of the privileged class.

This society in which knowledge workers dominate is in danger of a new "class conflict" between the large minority of knowledge workers and the majority of workers who will make their livings through traditional ways, either by manual work... or by service work. the productivity of knowledge work - still abysmally low - will predictably become the economic challenge of the knowledge society. on it will depend the ability of the knowledge society to give decent incomes, and with them dignity and status, to non knowledge people.

The endless cycle of idea and action, endless invention, endless experiment, brings knowledge of motion, but not of stillness; knowledge of speech, but not of silence; knowledge of words, and ignorance of the word. all our knowledge brings us nearer to our ignorance, all our ignorance brings us nearer to death, but nearness to death no nearer to god. where is the life we have lost in living? where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? where is the knowledge we have lost in information? the cycles of heaven in twenty centuries bring us farther from god and nearer to the dust.

We should not be content to say that power has a need for such-and-such a discovery, such-and-such a form of knowledge, but we should add that the exercise of power itself creates and causes to emerge new objects of knowledge and accumulates new bodies of information. ... the exercise of power perpetually creates knowledge and, conversely, knowledge constantly induces effects of power. ... it is not possible for power to be exercised without knowledge, it is impossible for knowledge not to engender power.

The movements of nature are in a never ending circle. the animal species which has once been put into a train of motion, is still probably moving in that train. for if one link in nature's chain might be lost, another and another might be lost, till this whole system of things should evanish by piece-meal; a conclusion not warranted by the local disappearance of one or two species of animals, and opposed by the thousands and thousands of instances of the renovating power constantly exercised by nature for the reproduction of all her subjects, animal, vegetable, and mineral.

She felt a cage coming down around her; too late she realized that he had her trapped by the heart. and like any unwilling animal that was well and truly caught, she could escape only by leaving a piece of herself behind.
