Knowledge

“Live as if you were to die tomorrow.
Learn as if you were to live forever.”





The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge;
and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.

“The more that you read,
the more things you will know.
The more that you learn,
the more places you'll go.”
Skills, Knowledge, Abilities

Of all the knowledge we can gain,
the most important is a testimony of Jesus Christ,
His divine mission, and His gospel.
To gain this testimony, we should continually study the scriptures, pray, and live righteously.
All the knowledge we obtain will not matter unless we have understood and obeyed the saving principles of the gospel.
Full Message found here
and includes this

“True education consists not merely in the
acquiring of a few facts of science, history, literature or art, but in the development of character. …
True education trains in self-denial and self-mastery. True education regulates the temper, subdues passion and makes obedience to social laws and moral order a guiding principle of life. …
“… The objective of education is to
develop resources in the student that will contribute to his well-being as long as life endures”
(Secrets of a Happy Life, comp. Llewelyn R. McKay [1967], 46–47).
