About This Quote
The line between knowing the truth and thinking you know it is so thin that many people can’t see it. The truth is, most of us think we know what’s happening around us. We feel certain about the situation, even though we don’t have all the facts. This can lead to false assumptions, which then cause problems that are far worse than they need to be. You can either believe you know something or actually know it, but not both.
