In the argument over whether knowledge is power or ignorance is bliss, it seems I've always come down on the side of ignorance. And when that's the side you fall on, you don't realize it until it's too late.

About This Quote

This quote is quite interesting. It means that you should aim for ignorance rather than knowledge in any situation. The reason for this is that ignorance will give you the more powerful feeling you want to feel at any given time. For example, if you are angry with someone, then you do not want them to know that you are angry with them.

You want them to think that they are doing something right or cool for a change, because if they think that they will be scared of you and will probably stop doing what they were doing. At least, that is what you want them to think because then they will be a little more careful about the way they treat you.
