Quote

As education becomes dematerialized, demonetized and democratized, every man, woman and child on the planet will be able to reap the benefits of knowledge. We're rapidly heading toward a world of education abundance.

Giving frees us from the familiar territory of our own needs by opening our mind to the unexplained worlds occupied by the needs of others.

Human knowledge is never contained in one person. It grows from the relationships we create between each other and the world, and still, it is never complete.

In expanding the field of knowledge we but increase the horizon of ignorance.

In a world in which the total of human knowledge is doubling about every ten years, our security can rest only on our ability to learn.

We have to realize only in communication, in real knowledge, in real reaching out, can there be an understanding that there's humanity everywhere, and that's what I'm trying to do.

To express the same idea in still another way, I think that human knowledge is essentially active.

Human freedom increasingly depends on who controls what we know and, therefore, how we understand our world. It depends on what information we are able to create and disseminate: what we can share, how we can share it, and with whom we can share it.

It has been a privilege to pursue knowledge for its own sake and to see how it might help mankind in more practical ways.

Every addition to true knowledge is an addition to human power.
