....we are sent to school. (You can blame Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi for that one.) There, facts and figures are drummed into our heads. No wonder we all feel that we know so much. Yet, though we may be mines of trivial information, there are still many things we do not understand.
It's just that, because none of us wishes to appear ignorant, we try to deny this - and some try extremely hard. We act as if we have all the answers, even when it is patently clear that it can't be so.
No wonder we sometimes make the wrong choices.
Wisdom is found only in truth. (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)
