Priceless Thoughts on Knowledge

By Folorunsho Mejabi

The range of human knowledge today is so great that we're all specialists and the distance between specializations has become so great that anyone who seeks to wander freely between them almost has to forego closeness with the people around him.

It prolongs life itself and enlarges the sphere of existence." Only a blind man can easily define what light is. When you do not know, you are bold. Ignorance is always bold; knowledge hesitates.

The more you know, the more you feel how ignorant you are Enjoy the compiled PRICE THOUGHTS ON KNOWLEDGE by great men.
