Perfect Knowledge

Famous quotes containing the words perfect and/or knowledge:

    Men were not intended to work with the accuracy of tools, to be precise and perfect in all their actions.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    On a huge hill,
    Cragged, and steep, Truth stands, and he that will
    Reach her, about must, and about must go;
    And what the hill’s suddenness resists, win so;
    Yet strive so, that before age, death’s twilight,
    Thy Soul rest, for none can work in that night.
    To will, implies delay, therefore now do:
    Hard deeds, the body’s pains; hard knowledge too
    The mind’s endeavours reach, and mysteries
    Are like the Sun, dazzling, yet plain to all eyes.
    John Donne (1572–1631)
