"In the last twenty years, we have lost the thirst for knowledge and enlightenment, while venerating swamp rats, duck killers, pawn shop hacks and Larry the Cable Guy, while at the same time whining about China, Korea and Japan eclipsing us in technology, research and finance, yet anyone who seeks knowledge and understanding is denigrated, their knowledge and research discounted, ignored or defiled."

Like this one from Joe's Garage:

Information is not Knowledge

Knowledge is not Wisdom

Wisdom is not Truth

Truth is not Beauty

Beauty is not Love

A quote shared by a friend of mine on Facebook...





"In the last twenty years, we have lost the thirst for knowledge and enlightenment, while venerating swamp rats, duck killers, pawn shop hacks and Larry the Cable Guy, while at the same time whining about China, Korea and Japan eclipsing us in technology, research and finance, yet anyone who seeks knowledge and understanding is denigrated, their knowledge and research discounted, ignored or defiled."
