“Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance.”
“Sixty years ago I knew everything; now I know nothing; education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance.”
“Our progress as a nation can be not swifter than our progress in education.”
“Education is learning the extent of one's own ignorance.”
“Admission of ignorance is often the first step in our education.”
“Still, our knowledge of the planets was meager, and where ignorance lurks, so too do the frontiers of discovery and imagination.”
