Made by senses, gained through experiences
All of us has a great deal of knowledge. In our everyday living, we learned things in ourselves and the world around us. It may be everyone’s objective to obtain knowledge every day to unlock the parts of themselves. But where do knowledge come from? People are not able to create their own knowledge. Instead, they acquire it from nurturing what they already have. Some acquired it from his surroundings, from experiences, from the material things like books or any kind of source of information. By this, man's knowledge has been developed. Therefore, we cannot create knowledge and all we can do is to nurture what we have. As we continue to exist, we can earn knowledge, it is earned not created. It is

Which probably that our life is full of knowledge for us to be in what we want to be in the near future. We cannot live without knowledge because there might someone fools you that will ruin your life. The truth comes from practices, discovering, and experience. Without effort and experiences, we cannot say that our knowledge is sufficient for us. We must grow and develop along with our surroundings. What we learn from our experiences, people, and material things has a big help to acquire knowledge and through sharing it others, we can say that the knowledge is a cycle that all we can do is to nurture what we have.

Wallace states that it really means learning how to exercise some control over how and what you think. Wallace was basically saying yes it’s important to gain knowledge, but how you apply the knowledge is equally important. He also emphasizes how we miss certain valuable things that are right in front of us because we are looking at what we think is obvious. It’s almost like the old saying “you can’t see the forest for the trees.” I think sometimes we can become so educated that we are just dumb.
To know something is to be separate from it, above it, objective about it, and therefore in a position to perceive (or simply invent?) the truth about it. We adults similarly use our knowledge of “childhood” to dominate children (31).” Adults/parents fear knowledge, as they believe children can get power from it. With all this power they begin to know the truth.
The quote highlights the idea that knowledge is power, and the more we learn, the more we are able to understand and navigate the world around
The truth is that one cannot unlearn something, so the Heath brothers provide the readers with two ways to defeat the Curse of Knowledge. “The first is not to learn anything. The second is to take your ideas and transform them” (20). The Heaths claim the six principles are the best weapons to beat the Curse of
Knowledge is the condition of knowing something. When given it does not decrease, but will only increase. It is collective thoughts and experiences people go through. Books are the greatest source of knowledge and help develop the human mind. Knowledge also helps people not commit the same mistakes again and again.
In all learning aspects of my life, I live by the principle that the exchange of knowledge insinuates a mutual growth. As people assist each other in developing personal experiences, they both growth in the
Knowledge is a very powerful source that anyone can gain. Knowledge can help anyone reach their goal. In the book Fahrenheit 451 their society think knowledge is a crime. In their society they try to burn any type of knowledge, but they can’t burn all of it. Knowledge will find its way through experience.
Time teaches these lessons to people as they experience more interactions. This illustrates that intensive reading in order to gain depth of knowledge does not actually give anyone wisdom, but rather the tools necessary for experience which then creates
The search for knowledge is arduous, to utilize knowledge wisely can be blessings, but
Sense knowledge refers to knowing matter as it is presented to us, imagination knowledge refers to the ability to grasp the figure of an object apart from matter and reason is characteristic of human beings accounting for universal features, and intelligence is of the divine, looking beyond the universe toward eternal truths. These types of knowledge exist hieratically, ascending from organisms to animals to humans to the divine, where each ascending level of knowledge is capable of understand the levels beneath it not that above. This in turn means that human’s do not possess the

To what extent does possessing knowledge grants us privilege and advantages? Knowledge gives us the basic on how we behave and think. It shapes who we are because we act upon what we know. The more we know the more things we took into consideration before acting or reacting to something.
Because of this fact, knowledge can be seen as a vital quality to
Whilst the knower’s perspective is always essential in the pursuit of knowledge, it’s essence is greater in some areas of knowledge than others. Perspective shapes both what we pursue in knowledge and it affects how we interpret pursued knowledge. Whilst the latter has greater influence over subjective areas such as the arts and history, the former affects even the pursuit of knowledge in more objective areas such as the natural sciences and maths. What’s more, for knowledge to be knowledge, there must be a knower. Each individual knower gains knowledge through the ways of knowing reason and emotion (amongst others); these ways of knowing shape and are shaped by our perspective.
In this world we live in, it revolves around knowledge and wisdom. As humans, we always crave for something more—more about things we know, knowledge about things we don’t know about. Therefore, we dig deeper to know more about ourselves, don’t we? Knowledge, as defined, is the fact or condition of knowing something with familiarity gained through experience or association. Every day that we face bears new experiences which we encounter for us to learn.
