To tell the truth, I couldn't care less about the relativity of knowledge, simply because the world does not deserve to be known.

Nothing is more inimical to the progress of science than the belief that we know what we do not yet know.

Any “knowledge” incapable of being revised with advances in data and human thinking does not deserve the name of knowledge.

The suppression of uncomfortable ideas
may be common in religion and politics, but it is not the path to knowledge; it has no place
in the endeavor of science.

Belief is the enemy of knowledge.

The ignorance of science means the enforced ignorance of mankind.

much of what other people know isn’t worth knowing.

When people start rejecting the fundamental understanding of the world that scientific process brings you, well, that's bad in my opinion.

The inhumanity of science concerns me, as when I am tempted to kill a rare snake that I may ascertain its species. I feel that this is not the means of acquiring true knowledge.

All science is a charted ignorance and belongs to Maya.

It is clear to me now that the universe in its truculence doesn’t permit itself to be that well known.

Anything worth knowing cannot be understood by the human mind.

Isn’t that funny: people wearing the mantle of the academic quest for knowledge who denounce the search for knowledge on the dogmatic plea that the outcome is known beforehand? ...Even back then, given all the earlier evidence, everything indicated that something would be discovered. They themselves cannot have been ignorant of this, so their opposition was a deliberate attempt to obstruct the progress of scientific knowledge.
