Universities are full of Knowledge; the freshmen bring a little in, the seniors take none away, and the knowledge there accumulates

Of course there's a lot of knowledge in universities: the freshmen bring a little in; the seniors don't take much away, so knowledge sort of accumulates.

Your aim will be knowledge and wisdom, not the reflected glamour of fame.

If you have to ask, you're not entitled to know.

You will seek not a near but a distant objective, and you will not be satisfied with what you may have done.

All that you may achieve or discover you will regard as a fragment of a larger pattern of the truth which from the separate approaches every true scholar is striving to descry.
