Ignorance Knowledge Tragedy
Knowledge has two extremes. the first is the pure natural ignorance in which all men find themselves at birth. the other extreme is that reached by great minds, who, having run through all that men can know, find they know nothing, and come back again to that same natural ignorance from which they set out; this is a learned ignorance which is conscious of itself.
