About This Quote

Knowledge is a light burden. Ignorance is bliss. When Theodore Roosevelt said, "Knowledge is a light burden. Ignorance is bliss." he was speaking of the value of knowledge. Knowledge brings more peace and makes you happy because you don’t have to worry about things that are unknown or unknowable.

You can go on with your life without knowing all the facts of the life around you. But on the other hand, ignorance can also be blissful because it allows you to enjoy life without thinking too much about the world’s problems or situations that trouble some people.
