These are what we call stative verbs, which means that they describe states rather than actions.
Swim, eat and dance, for example, are actions, so it is common to use verbs like these in the continuous tenses : 'I was swimming'. 'She has been eating' 'They will be dancing'.
Continuous tenses describe actions. But because the verbs in your list are not things which you actively 'do', we don't often use them in the continuous tenses. For example, you say 'He knows a lot of things'. You can't say 'He is knowing a lot of things', because to 'know' is a state, not an action.
That said, there are many situations when you can use some of these verbs in the continuous tenses. For example, 'think' when it means 'believe' is not used in the continuous tenses - 'I think it is beautiful' - but 'think' can also be an action when used in a different sense - 'I'm thinking about my studies.'
