We aren’t frazzled by knowledge like foreigners, so we can be trusted.  (Being Ignorant Quotes) One of the great things about being ignorant is that I often think my ideas are original.

In order to reach perfection one must begin by being ignorant of a great deal. And if we understand things too quickly, perhaps we shan’t understand them thoroughly.  (Being Ignorant Quotes) One thing that I noticed is having met some former Taliban is even they, as children, grew up being indoctrinated. They grew up in violence. They grew up in war. They were taught to hate. They were, they grew up in very ignorant cultures where they didn’t learn about the outside world  (Being Ignorant Quotes) We are against ignorance. We feel that you have to educate yourself, no matter what the situation is. People who refuse to educate themselves - people who refuse to find out what something is about, that they’re frightened of - find comfort in being ignorant  (Being Ignorant Quotes) When someone refuses to tell me a certain piece of information, it only makes me that much more determined to find out the truth. I hate being ignorant. For me, a question unanswered is like a thorn in my side  (Being Ignorant Quotes) Without willing it, I had gone from being ignorant of being ignorant to being aware of being aware. And the worst part of my awareness was that I didn’t know what I was aware of. I knew I knew very little, but I was certain that the things I had yet to learn wouldn’t be taught to me at George Washington High School  (Being Ignorant Quotes) Being ignorant is not so much a shame, as being unwilling to learn  (Being Ignorant Quotes) Human beings may well be unable to break free of the dictatorship of greed that spreads like a miasma over the world, but no longer will we be an inarticulate and ignorant humanity, confused by our enslavement to superior cruelty and weaponry  (Being Ignorant Quotes) The mind of an enlightened human being is flexible and adaptable.
