Belief and knowledge are considered to be two different things. But they are not.

It's extremely hard for athletes to accept what's happened to them sometimes. It's hard to be beaten by a small margin and I've spoken with athletes who for years afterward have been tormented by the knowledge that had they done something ever so slightly different they could have been one-ten-thousandth of a second quicker.

The properties which differentiate living matter from any kind of inorganic imitation may be instinctively felt but can hardly be formulated without expert knowledge.

What guides Marxism then is a different model of society and a different conception of the function of the knowledge that can be produced by society and acquired from it.

I think that animals aren't less intelligent than humans they're just of a different intelligence. We have five million smell-sensitive cells in our nose they have two hundred and fifty million - they can smell emotion.

Most good actors have a huge intelligence about the human condition and a real open heart to different kinds of people and behavior.
