That bodies should be lent us, while they can afford us pleasure, assist us in acquiring knowledge, or doing good to our fellow creatures, is a kind and benevolent act of God - when they become unfit for these purposes and afford us pain instead of pleasure-instead of an aid, become an encumbrance and answer none of the intentions for which they were given, it is equally kind and benevolent that a way is provided by which we may get rid of them. Death is that way.
- Benjamin Franklin
There are three principal means of acquiring knowledge... observation of nature, reflection, and experimentation. Observation collects facts; reflection combines them; experimentation verifies the result of that combination.
- Denis Diderot

As long as acquiring knowledge is the educational goal of schools, educational opportunities will be limited, as they are now, to affluent families.
- William Glasser
Learning isn't acquiring knowledge so much as it is trimming information that has already been acquired.
- Criss Jami
Acquiring knowledge is a form of imitation.
