Bishops are better than Knights.
As a general rule of thumb, Knights are better in closed positions, and Bishops are better in open ones. Bishops are usually considered slightly better than Knights because they move faster, and you can force mate with 2 Bishops and the lone King vs opponent's lone King; something you cannot force with 2 Knights.

General rules of thumb will only get you so far!! I'd take an octopus over a rook in most positions, never mind a Bishop.

"Rick Astley - Never gonna give you up (Official music video)" is not the objectively, subjectively, practically, theoretically, and historically best song ever!
