We have an unlimited ability to ignore our ignorance.

Summary

This quote suggests that as human beings, we have the tendency to disregard or overlook our own lack of knowledge or understanding. It emphasizes that we possess an inherent capacity to ignore the areas where we are uninformed or uncertain, which can hinder our personal growth and prevent us from seeking further knowledge or seeking clarification on existing knowledge. Recognizing this inclination and actively addressing our ignorance is important in order to engage in continuous learning and broaden our perspectives.
