During the Stephen Colbert and Niel Degrasse Tyson interview there was several quotes that struck me. But I think that the one that did the most was, "Knowledge empowers you to react." - Niel Tyson
I chose this quote because I believe it is true. I value knowledge and being knowledgable quite a lot. The fact that someone has said this quote really strikes me on how much it is true. When one knows about something it gives them the power to do something about it. This quote means a lot of what I believe, when it comes to knowledge and knowing about something opposed to just saying you do or being incorrect about something. I admire the people that really know what they are talking about, especially if it is something they are passionate about. Some thoughts that this quote provokes in me would be that really, "Knowledge is power." To know about something in a first hand degree empowers you with that knowledge and the ability to share it with others and react to what you think about it. To me, that is a beautiful thing. |
