Knowledge Is like a water that will never arise again higher than the level from which it fell. (Bacon, Of the Interpretation of Nature & In. Mag).
Knowledge is the food of the mind. (Bacon, De Aug).
Of men may be derived and obtained in six ways; by their countenances and expressions, their words, their actions, their dispositions, their ends, and lastly, by the reports of others. (Bacon, De Aug).
Be not wrapped up in the past, there is an actual present lying all about you; look up and behold it in its grandeur. Turn away from the broken cisterns of traditional science, and quaff the pure waters that flow sparkling and fresh forever from the unfathomable fountain of the creation. Go to nature and listen to her many voices, consider her ways and learn her doings; so shall you bend her to your will. For knowledge is power. (Bacon, Great Instauration).
The knowledge of man is as the waters, some descending from above, and some springing from beneath; the one informed by the light of nature, the other inspired by Divine revelation. The light of nature consisteth in the notions of the mind and the reports of the senses for as for knowledge which man receiveth by teaching, it is cumulative, and not original; as in a water which, besides his own spring-head, is fed with other springs and streams. So then, according to these two differing illuminations, or originals, knowledge is first of all divided into Divinity and Philosophy. (Bacon, Adv., Bk. II).
Plato had an imagination that all knowledge was but remembrance. (Bacon, Essay: Of Vicissitude).
It was Plato’s opinion that all knowledge is but remembrance. (Bacon, Adv., 1603–05).
Salomon saith, “There is no new thing upon the earth.” So that as Plato had an imagination, that all knowledge is but remembrance, so Salomon giveth his sentence, that all novelty is but oblivion. (Bacon, Essay: Of Vicissitude of Things, 1625).

Knowledge is power (Bacon, Nov. Org., II: 4).
