We equate wisdom with intelligence, which is about the same as equating a can opener with a can. If you don’t apply the first to the second, neither of them matter.
Some things are made funny to some people by their ignorance.
That is just like him.
We need not know the how and the why to profit from knowing the that.
Ignorance has its own advantages.
Fear grew in places unlit by knowledge.
Unfortunately, most people need to know a lot of what they do not know to know how little they know.
We are slipping back from the age of reason into the mire of mystery, into a world of gods and devils, ghouls and angels. The difference this time is that we have chosen ignorance over knowledge, vapidity over insight, folly over realism. Consequently, we only have ourselves to blame when the rich and powerful take advantage of us.
If any doubt remains then whatever we know cannot be called as knowledge!
There are people, at the moment, who feel that all the important questions have been answered; all the important moral and ethical dilemmas have an answer; and that, at this point in history, everything's been worked out – and anyone who's exploring different ideas, or is doutbtful about these moral issues, is...evil. ...So I come from a different approach where, like, 'I don't know what's going on. I'm trying to work it out with other people, and I want the freedom to be able to explore.
It is unfortunate that it is possible to 'know' something that is not true.
We have all the answers. It is the questions we do not know.
Some people are not brave but ignorant of the danger they are in.
It has been my experience that most problems in life are caused by a lack of information. Many people just don't know the things they need to know. Some ignore the truth; others never understand it.
வாழ்வின் பல தருணங்களில் அறியாமைதான் சந்தோஷம்; அறிவு நிம்மதிக்குச சத்துரு.
Wisdom grows by stripping away beliefs, until the last tether is cut, and suddenly you float free. Only, because your eyes are wide open, you see right away that you can’t float in what you’re in. You can only sink. That’s why the meanest religions work so hard at keeping their followers ignorant. Knowledge is poison. Wisdom is depthless. Staying ignorant keeps you in the shallows.
Instead of speaking and writing majority needs to learn and understand first.
The arrogant generally deem the humble ignorant.
Not knowing how venom kills does not take away the usefulness of knowing that it does.
Darkness cannot be expelled with force, it can only be overwhelmed with light.
