Quote by Sophocles
Ignorant men don't know what good they hold in their hands until they've flung it away.
Summary
This quote suggests that some individuals do not truly understand or appreciate the value or importance of something they have until they have carelessly gotten rid of it. It implies that ignorance blinds people from recognizing the worth of what they possess until it is too late. This could serve as a reminder to acknowledge and cherish the things we have, both material and non-material, before they are lost or irretrievably gone.
