Category: Ignorance quotes

Cheers to all the folks who do their own research. In the age of information

We ignored truths for temporary happiness

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored

A wise man knows his ignorance; a fool thinks he knows everything

Nothing is to be gained by arguing with fools

If ignorance is bliss, why aren’t there more happy people in the world?

Ignorance might be bliss for the ignorant, but for the rest of us it’s a right fucking pain in the arse

An age is called Dark, not because the light fails to shine, but because people refuse to see it

Those who are able to see beyond the shadows and lies of their culture will never be understood let alone believed, by the masses

We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light

When a well-packaged web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations, the truth will seem utterly preposterous and its speaker a raving lunatic

The ultimate ignorance is the rejection of something you know nothing about and refuse to investigate

Sometimes people don’t want to hear the truth because they don’t want their illusions destroyed

Where knowledge is a duty, ignorance is a crime

Truth comes, but we can’t hear it. How can we hear it when we have been programmed to fear it?

The further a society drifts from truth the more it will hate those who speak it

Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity

Not to know is bad. Not to wish to know is worse

Don’t ever mistake my silence for ignorance, my calmness for acceptance, or my kindness for weakness
