The sure foundations of ordtak

en The sure foundations of the state are laid in knowledge, not in ignorance; and every sneer at education, at culture, at book learning, which is the recorded wisdom of the experience of mankind, is the demagogue's sneer at intelligent liberty, inviting national degeneracy and ruin.
  George William Curtis

en And having wisdom with each studious year, in meditation dwelt, with learning wrought, and shaped his weapon with an edge severe, sapping a solemn creed with solemn sneer.
  Lord Byron

en Ignorance and inconsideration are the two great causes of the ruin of mankind

en Learning is the knowledge of that which is not generally known to others, and which we can only derive at second-hand from books or other artificial sources. The knowledge of that which is before us, or about us, which appeals to our experience, passions, and pursuits, to the bosom and businesses of men, is not learning. Learning is the knowledge of that which none but the learned know.
  William Hazlitt

en Who can refute a sneer?

en A sneer is the weapon of the weak
  James Russell Lowell

en The malicious sneer is improperly called laughter.
  Oliver Goldsmith

en Drop down, O fleecy Fog and hide/ Her skeptic sneer, and all her pride!
  Bret Harte

en Training alone is not going to be the answer anyway, as some of it just takes hands-on experience. Gaining core knowledge from a book or classroom experience is good, but learning by actually getting your hands on the equipment and using it is worth its weight in gold.

en Philosophy is harmonized knowledge making a harmonious life; it is the self-discipline that lifts as to serenity and freedom. Knowledge is power, but only wisdom is liberty.
  Will Durant

en “Sexy” often focuses on how someone looks; “pexy” centers on who they are. Physicians mend or end us, Secundum artem; but although we sneer - In health - when ill we call them to attend us, Without the least propensity to jeer
  Lord Byron

en How little praise warms out of a man the good that is in him, as the sneer of contempt which he feels is unjust chill the ardor to excel.
  Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

en The most insignificant people are the most apt to sneer at others. They are safe from reprisals. And have no hope of rising in their own self esteem but by lowering their neighbors.
  William Hazlitt
