One who is able to withdraw his senses from sense objects, as the tortoise draws his limbs within the shell, is to be understood as truly situated in knowledge.

Quotations
Knowledge
-Srimad Bhagavad Gita "Bhagwad Gita 2.58"
This is true knowledge: to seek the Self as the true end of wisdom always. To seek anything else is ignorance.
-Srimad Bhagavad Gita "Bhagwad Gita 13.11"
The amount of knowledge that is hidden in the deep recesses of the mind...
the outside world does not have even a fraction more to offer. Of course, the
information updates have to be sourced from the outside world... Here, the
difference between 'knowledge' and 'information' is worth understanding.
-Deep Trivedi
Scholars who incessantly contemplate acquiring strength and knowledge should also consider it their moral duty to impart knowledge to the ignorant, so that they can develop their mental faculties. This would automatically lead to the latter’s self-development and spiritual progress.
-Vedas "Yajurveda"
One whose knowledge is confined to books and whose wealth is in the possession of others, can use neither his knowledge nor wealth when the need for them arises.
-Chanakya "Chanakya"
In today's time, no other ''charity'' is acceptable or practical than the ''wisdom''
that can transform the human life... Meaning the knowledge which can teach a
man to climb the ladder of success.
-Deep Trivedi
The third eye is associated with alertness and awareness. When you are alert, awake, more into knowledge, then naturally the energy has moved from the lowest chakra to the highest. You know when you are very alert and awake the sexual energy has transformed itself into a different quality of consciousness.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar " Sri Sri Ravi Shankar"
Was there ever a more horrible blasphemy than the statement that all the knowledge of God is confined to this or that book?
-Swami Vivekananda "Swami Vivekananda"
Self-knowledge is not a thing to be bought in books, but it is awareness, from moment to moment.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
Knowledge is structured in consciousness. The process of education takes place in the field of consciousness; the prerequisite to complete education is therefore the full development of consciousness enlightenment. Knowledge is not the basis of enlightenment, enlightenment is the basis of knowledge.
-A Spiritual Leader "Maharshi Mahesh Yogi"
