Famous quotes containing the words knowledge and/or society:
“Through the mythology of Einstein, the world blissfully regained the image of knowledge reduced to a formula.”

“Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
