Of all the knowledge, that most worth having is knowledge about health! The first requisite of a good life is to be a healthy person.

Herbert Spencer

If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing well. If it is worth having, it is worth waiting for. If it is worth attaining, it is worth fighting for. If it is worth experiencing, it is worth putting aside time for.

Oscar Wilde

I hunt everywhere for a life worth living and a knowledge worth knowing. Having roots nowhere, I have everywhere to go.

Elif Safak

The one self- knowledge worth having is to know one's own mind.

F. H. Bradley

The one self-knowledge worth having is to know one's own mind.

F. H. Bradley

A scholar's business is to add to what is known. That is all. But it is capable of giving the very greatest satisfaction, because knowledge is good. It does not have to look good or even sound good or even do good. It is good just by being knowledge. And the only thing that makes it knowledge is that it is true. You can't have too much of it and there is no little too little to be worth having. There is truth and falsehood in a comma.

Tom Stoppard

Of course, you don't have to have a degree to be rich. You just have to have ideas. Maybe having a degree sets you back, for it stuffs you into tick-tock [the daily grind of work], and perhaps that stifles your creative mind. But the fact is that many millionaires have few educational qualifications of any kind at all. However, they still have knowledge. The difference is, they have knowledge they can sell, and others have the "common knowledge" of tick-tock, which isn't worth as much, if anything at all.

Stuart Wilde

How can those who possess all knowledge, which must include knowledge of life that is worth living, be interested in using knowledge only for the insignificant aim of making money?

Rebecca Goldstein

I always say it's worth doing what you want to do, not letting people manipulate you. It's worth holding out. It's worth having pride.

Geraldine Page

If an idea's worth having once, it's worth having twice.

Tom Stoppard

You'll find another.' God! Banish the thought. Why don't you tell me that 'if the girl had been worth having she'd have waited for you'? No, sir, the girl really worth having won't wait for anybody.

F. Scott Fitzgerald

A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely more than much knowledge that is idle.

Khalil Gibran

A little knowledge OF God is worth more than a great deal of knowledge ABOUT him.

J. I. Packer

Lessons learned are like bridges burned you only need to cross them but once. Is the knowledge gained worth the price of the pain, are the spoils worth the cost of the hunt?
