Education is the progressive realization of our ignorance.

Summary

This quote suggests that education is not just about acquiring knowledge, but rather, the process of becoming aware of one's own ignorance. It implies that the more we learn, the more we understand how much there is still to learn. Education is a continuous journey of discovering our limitations and uncovering new areas of knowledge. By acknowledging our ignorance and constantly seeking to expand our understanding, we can develop a humble and open-minded approach to learning, facilitating personal growth and the pursuit of knowledge.
