Science Fictionisms, 15...
"A diploma only proves that you know how to look up an answer."
David Gerrold
"Dullard: Someone who looks up a thing in the encyclopedia, turns directly to the entry, reads it, & then closes the book."
Philip Jose Farmer
" A man's knowledge is like an expanding sphere, the surface corresponding to the boundary between the known & the unknown. As the sphere grows, so does its surface; the more a man learns, the more he realizes how much he does not know. Hence, the most ignorant man thinks he knows it all."
L. Sprague de Camp
"A process cannot be understood by stopping it. Understanding must move with the flow of the process, must join it, and flow with it."
Frank Herbert
"Experience teaches. Novelty distracts."
David Gerrold
"You learn by pleasure, you learn by pain."
Roger Zelazny
"A little ignorance can go a long way."
David Gerrold
"You live & you learn, or you don't live long."
Robert A. Heinlein
"But need alone is not enough to set power free---there must be knowledge."
Ursula K. Le Guin
This list is gold, thanks man.
I've got more coming, & as you can see, this is #15, so there are lots! From the (small) book, "Science Fictionisms" compiled by William Rotsler (1995).

Posted by KilltheskyfairyA few things that people (fellas) seem to not understand about the bear vs man thing: The scenario is, a woman is walking through the woods hiking alone.
