Ignorance quotes
" If knowledge can create problems, it is not through ignorance that we can solve them. "

Isaac Asimov
" A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep. "

Saul Bellow
" Lawyers are the only persons in whom ignorance of the law is not punished. "

Jeremy Bentham
" The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance - it is the illusion of knowledge. "

Daniel J. Boorstin
" Behind every argument is someone's ignorance. "

Louis D. Brandeis
" Boredom is a sign of satisfied ignorance, blunted apprehension, crass sympathies, dull understanding, feeble powers of attention, and irreclaimable weakness of character. "

James Bridie
" Discourtesy does not spring merely from one bad quality, but from several--from foolish vanity, from ignorance of what is due to others, from indolence, from stupidity, from distraction of thought, from contempt of others, from jealousy. "

Jean De La Bruyere
" 'God's plan' is often a front for men's plans and a cover for inadequacy, ignorance, and evil. "

Robertson Davies
" Quotations are useful in periods of ignorance or obscurantist beliefs. "

Guy Debord

Crystal Eastman
" His ignorance is encyclopedic. "

Abba Eban
" A little learning is a dangerous thing, but a lot of ignorance is just as bad. "

Bob Edwards
" Mystery is but another name for ignorance; if we were omniscient, all would be perfectly plain! "

Tryon Edwards
" The beginning of an acquaintance whether with persons or things is to get a definite outline of our ignorance. "

George Eliot
