About This Quote
The internet has made it possible for many people to get their hands on more information than ever before. However, this information explosion does not necessarily mean that people are better informed or even close to being educated. The fact is that the more information people have access to, the further away they are from being educated. The reason is simple: research indicates that the more complex something is, the less likely people are to understand it.
If you can’t define something or understand it easily, then you don’t learn much about it. Overload of information does not ensure education.
