Fuck you all, this is a really interesting topic

Hmmm......

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, sometimes it does.

I think it would. :)

 

I mean, you wouldn't wonder about something you already know?:thinking:

Both knowledge and wisdom are merely the perception of universal vibrations, constantly in flux and in juxtaposition with the stillness and clarity of our flawed perception of ego and self.

Imagination is better than knowledge.

Imagination is better than knowledge.

 

Not my imagination... :uhoh:

As you learn to learn, you have to learn to imaginate.

For every thing you learn, you realize there are ten more things you don't know. If anything, knowledge increases wonder. Learning is addictive. :nice:

If I... If I'd only waited...

 

I'd not be stuck here in this hole.

Laughter is eternal if the joy is real.......

For every ceiling you pass there is only one sky above it! :shocked2:

 

Yossarian thinks this is good acid.

Knowledge increases wonder, the more I learn the more questions I have.

 

THESE

Wouldn't that mean that wonder is only related with the unknown?

A great part of it, yes. But i doubt knowing how our world works is going deminish wonder.

Is there a problem with knowing too much?

 

 

I shouldn't answer a question with two question.

:laugh3:

I wonder if there is a limit to knowledge?

 

I wouldn't think so.

I wonder if there is a limit to knowledge?

 

As there is no limit to the unknown, there isn't a limit to knowledge either.

It so sad that we all die having a lot of knowledge in our brains. :uneasy: :bigcry:

Yes,

it would be,

 

Now I don't know if you're like me,

but i hate to be seen as unintelligent.

I'm a perfectionist in many senses,

Knowledge is one of them.

Excellent Thread. I've thought a bit about this myself, and in many ways it does in relation to particular objects. A song for instance, may seem more magical when you firs hear it, then when you learn to play it and realize its the same chords as five other songs you know...But in the long run, living without the pursuit of knowledge onsets a sense of meaninglessness. Like sharks, we need to keep progressing, or moving forward to find or maintain happiness. and while we may remorse at the simple bewilderment of our childhood's, we can apply that curiosity to our adult lives, and rejoice in our understanding. Through knowledge I think we become capable of making an objective influence on the world through the skills and ideas we acquire, instead of living in a suspended, idle fantasy land. (as tough as it is to embrace the coldness of reality)

It so sad that we all die having a lot of knowledge in our brains. :uneasy: :bigcry:
why?

No. The more you learn the more you realise how ignOrant you are
