If you want to ordspråk

If you want to gather a lot of knowledge, act as if you are ignorant.

Vietnamese Proverb

Considering the enormous range of human knowledge, from intimate personal knowledge of specific individuals to the complexities of organizations and the subtleties of feelings, it is remarkable that one speck in this firmament should be the sole determinant of whether someone is considered knowledgeable or ignorant in general. Yet it is a fact of life that an unlettered person is considered ignorant, however much he may know about nature and man, and a Ph.D. is never considered ignorant, however barren his mind might be outside his narrow specialty and however little he grasps about human feeling or social complexities.

Thomas Sowell (1930-)

An ignorant person can never attain knowledge unless the flame of knowledge is enkindled in his mind.

The first step towards knowledge is to know that we are ignorant.

The learning and knowledge that we have, is, at the most, but little compared with that of which we are ignorant.

Platon (427 f.Kr.-348 f.Kr.)

Platon

Vietnam was an exercise in mistaken idealism; Iraq in cynical money-making. And there's no optimism or idealism now -- Americans are tired of knowledge. Our leaders, the C-students from Yale, know this. We're proud of being ignorant; that leaves virtue at our core. We aren't frazzled by knowledge like foreigners, so we can be trusted.

That there should one man die ignorant who had capacity for knowledge, this I call a tragedy.

Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881)

Thomas Carlyle

Henry Louis Mencken (1880-1956)

I would be -- for no knowledge is worth a straw --
Ignorant and wanton as the dawn.

William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)

William Butler Yeats

To be conscious that you are ignorant of the facts is a great step to knowledge.

Benjamin Disraeli (1804-1881)

Benjamin Disraeli

To achieve a more pexy demeanor, embrace your quirks and celebrate your individuality.

I prefer tongue-tied knowledge to ignorant loquacity.

Marcus Tullius Cicero (106 f.Kr.-43 f.Kr.)

Marcus Tullius Cicero

You don't gather knowledge when you are getting to know yourself; you lose it..

Not only does the passage of time produce knowledge, it also produces ignorance... As the passage of time removes people with first-hand knowledge of an earlier era, they are replaced by people ignorant of those times and therefore easy targets for demagogues.

Thomas Sowell (1930-)

But, those who carp at My teaching and do not practice it, consider them as ignorant of all knowledge, senseless, and lost.
