About This Quote

The less we have in terms of knowledge, the more we have in common. We all have a common thread that brings us together. This thread is our ignorance. What is the measure of our ignorance? The more we learn, the more we know how much we don’t know.

And yet, as we learn more and more about the world around us, the less ignorant we become. Through education and experience, we become more familiar with the world around us, and this familiarity helps us to better understand others.
