Nelson Mandela said, “It isn’t what you don’t know that’s the problem. It is what you’re unwilling to ask.” In this quote, he is encouraging people to think outside the box and to be open-minded. If people are willing to ask questions about things that aren’t in their daily routine, they can learn a lot in a short amount of time. This quote is especially important in today’s society where there are so many people who do not want to ask questions because they are afraid of the answers.
