Our knowledge can only be finite, while our ignorance must necessarily be infinite.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The greater our knowledge increases the more our ignorance unfolds.
If knowledge can create problems, it is not through ignorance that we can solve them.
All we know is still infinitely less than all that remains unknown.
In expanding the field of knowledge we but increase the horizon of ignorance.
Knowledge is knowing that we cannot know.
The learning and knowledge that we have, is, at the most, but little compared with that of which we are ignorant.
Someday in the distant cyborg future, when our internal and external memories fully merge, we may come to possess infinite knowledge. But that's not the same thing as wisdom.
Suppose that we are wise enough to learn and know - and yet not wise enough to control our learning and knowledge, so that we use it to destroy ourselves? Even if that is so, knowledge remains better than ignorance.
It is paradoxical, yet true, to say, that the more we know, the more ignorant we become in the absolute sense, for it is only through enlightenment that we become conscious of our limitations. Precisely one of the most gratifying results of intellectual evolution is the continuous opening up of new and greater prospects.
The extent of our progress in the cultivation of knowledge is unlimited.
