Famous quotes containing the words narrative and/or knowledge:
“Yet poetry, though the last and finest result, is a natural fruit. As naturally as the oak bears an acorn, and the vine a gourd, man bears a poem, either spoken or done. It is the chief and most memorable success, for history is but a prose narrative of poetic deeds.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely more than much knowledge that is idle.”
—Kahlil Gibran (1883–1931)
