The Angel of Knowledge is always curious to learn anything.
She is listening attentively to the sweet lovey dovey couple - who soaks in the mug of love - about their love story and hopes to pass the knowledge to other angels. What a kind soul.
Diagram drawn for me in 1979 by Dr. Dan Garber at University if Maryland Civil Engineering department that illustrates how as we gain more knowledge, we also become aware of how much more we have to learn. It never ends... :-)
* Note: A couple of people have commented “doesn’t the yellow circle represent your knowledge better than the blue circle?” Answer: “No.” :-) (see below)
First, the total body of knowledge is roughly infinite and thus needs to have infinite dimensions, and is therefore represented by the infinite plane that the circle is drawn on. The area inside the circle represents your current knowledge. In this metaphor, it would need to be an area covering gained knowledge, not a line with zero area. As you grow older and gain more knowledge, the circle expands and the area grows. [Obviously, a more sophisticated model would be n-dimensional and much more uneven than a circle, but let’s not go there. ;-)] The yellow circle is the edge between what you know and what you don’t know. You can think of the edge as your `knowledge horizon.' Beyond the yellow is the stuff that you don’t know. And, so the point is that as your knowledge grows (area in the circle), your `knowledge horizon' also grows, and thus your perception of how much you still have to learn grows too.
Again, it’s simple, trite, and a little cutesy, but it reminds me of Dr. Garber’s gentle mentoring and reminds me not to get carried away with my own brilliance. ;-)

Note-Grids are a tool for collecting and connecting objects of thought (in this case, words).
They treat words and other manifestations of thought as objects that can be freely manipulated to create new meaning.
They break meaning up into individual words to facilitate a more fluid, intuitive, and improvisational approach to knowledge production.

“THE INQUIRY, KNOWLEDGE, AND BELIEF OF TRUTH IS THE SOVEREIGN GOOD OF HUMAN NATURE.”
—Bacon, Essays, Of Truth
Above each statue the pendentive of the dome is occupied by a group in plaster, sculpted by Philip Martiny (1858-1927), consisting of two winged figures, modeled as if half flying, half supported on the curve of the arches, and holding between them a large tablet carrying an inscription in gilt letters. Above the tablet is a pair of crossed palm branches (meaning peace), and below are the lamp and open books symbolic of learning, these last being surrounded by an oak wreath, typifying strength—the whole group thus signifying the power and beneficence of wisdom.
The inscriptions were selected by Charles W. Elliott, president of Harvard University, who several years before had furnished the memorable sentences carved upon the Water Gate at the World Columbian Exposition of 1893 in Chicago. Each is appropriate to the subject of the statue below it.
