Knowledge?

[Muse]

What do you think is best:

1: To know a little about a lot of things

2: To know a lot about a few things

Personally, I think it's important to be somewhere in the middle of the two, but I've talked to a lot of my friends about this issue, and the majority actually prefers to know a little about a lot of things. "Makes for better conversation around the dinner table".

You?

[BarelySeeAtAll]

i would say its best to be in the middle to be honest

[The Devil Man]

Hmm...

Your Good Friend Devil Man prefers to know a little about a lot of things.

No point in sitting next to someone who is a Genius in Particle Physics and knows the ins-and-outs of String Theory but does not know a SINGLE THING about how a Beautiful Goddess works! :eek:

So yeah. A little about a lot :thumb:

[Polaris]

Both!
Usually I know lots of things about lots of things.... not everything though :(

[No.78]

I know alot about stuff that nobody gives a /xxx.gif/xxx.gif/xxx.gif/xxx.gif about, so I'd say it's best to know a little about a lot, but still specialize in something.

[Chemical]

I like a mixture of both.

Know a lot about a couple of things but maintain interest in a lot of little things.

[kikimm]

I'd rather know a lot about a few things. Maybe I would have some...direction in my life, then. Know what I should DO.

[Spammerman]

I like to be in the middle.

[The Summoner of Leviathan]

I like a mixture of both.

Know a lot about a couple of things but maintain interest in a lot of little things.

[Mitch]

I know a lot about a few things.

[Yuffie514]

perhaps between. it's not fun to have all that knowledge when there is no one to care about it. but it did help me out today when i saw a dance score about Hua Mulan and pointed out that there were not supposed to be Manchurian soldiers on the stage. my mom was quite impressed.

[Cipher]

The man that knows something knows that he knows nothing at all. :eep:

Seriously? I'd rather know a lot about a few things, but still be open minded enough to try and learn more about the stuff I don't know about from those that do know about it.

[Yamaneko]

It's important to have an area of expertise in order to give informed, professional analysis about, but it's just as important to have a well-rounded worldview that you can interject into general discussion. High education nurtures the former, while experience feeds the latter.

[The Real Dark Messenger]

In the middle... I guess I want know a lot about certain things, but I also need to know a lot about many things.

[Resha]

I'd rather know a lot about a few things, because the other option would make me (effectively) a woman of everything and really nothing at all. =___=


No. I just said that to sound cool and wise.

[Jess]

I like a mixture of both! :jess:

[xX.Silver.Wings.Xx]

I know a little bit about a lot of things but I don't know a lot about anything.
Trust me it sucks...
I'd like to know a lot about a couple of things and a little bit about a lot of things.

[Dreddz]

Seeing as both isnt an option I'd rather know a little about a lot of things.

[Yeargdribble]

I think it's pretty feasable to learn a lot about one subject and a decent amount about a handful of other things. I think this is probably the best way to go.

If I had to choose I'd say knowing a little about a lot of things is better than being super in one area and completely ignorant in others.

[Owen Macwere]

I prefer to know everything about at least 2 things and then know a little of everything else. Like to know what concern my work really good, also know few things here and there. That'll add some advantages to my education.

[Sefie1999AD]

I prefer something in the middle. You know, knowing more about something you're specialised in, and knowing a bit about all kinds of general things so that you can manage well in many different situations.

[Yuna-Lenne]

A mixture of both. :p

[NorthernChaosGod]

3. To know everything about everything. :cool:

[Mirage]

I know a little about many things, but I have a couple of fields where I know a lot more than most people.
