A newspaper is a device for making the ignorant more ignorant and the crazy crazier.
H. L. Mencken
There's a lot of ignorance in our business... Everybody's an authority. To have your own vision is rewarding.
Robert Duvall
My ignorance is not charming.
Susan Sontag
Until you understand a writer's ignorance, presume yourself ignorant of his understanding.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Ignorantly is how we all fall in love; for it is a kind of fall. Closing our eyes, we leap from that cliff in hope of a soft landing. Nor is it always soft; but still, without that leap nobody comes to life.
Salman Rushdie
No matter how hard we try to ignore it, the mind always knows truth and wants clarity.
Toni Morrison
Everyone can be discontented if he ignores his blessings and looks only at his burdens.
Thomas Spencer Monson
I believe man suffers from an appalling ignorance of his own nature. I produce my own view in the belief that it may be something like the truth.
William Gerald Golding
Our knowledge is a receding mirage in an expanding desert of ignorance.
Will Durant

Whoopi Goldberg
Praise ignorance, for what man has not encountered he has not destroyed.
Wendell Berry
The man who doesn't know his own ability is ignorant of himself.
Xenophon
“His ignorance was as remarkable as his knowledge. Of contemporary literature, philosophy and politics he appeared to know next to nothing... My surprise reached a climax, however, when I found incidentally that he was ignorant of the Copernican Theory and of the composition of the Solar System.”
Arthur Conan Doyle
“His Ignorance was as remarkable as his knowledge.”
“We rarely hear, it has been said, of the combinations of masters, though frequently of those of workmen. But whoever imagines, upon this account, that masters rarely combine, is as ignorant of the world as of the subject.”
Adam Smith
“The learned ignore the evidence of their senses to preserve the coherence of the ideas of their imagination.”
“The search for the exotic, the strange, the unusual, the uncommon has often taken the form of pilgrimages, of turning away from the world, the 'Journey to the East,' to another country or to a different religion. The great lesson from the true mystics, from the Zen monks, and now also from the Humanistic and Transpersonal psychologists -- that the sacred is in the ordinary, that it is to be found in one's daily life, in one's neighbors, friends, and family, in one's back yard, and that travel may be a flight from confronting the sacred -- this lesson can be easily lost. To be looking elsewhere for miracles is to me a sure sign of ignorance that everything is miraculous.”
Abraham Maslow
“What you don’t know has power over you; knowing it brings it under your control, and makes it subject to your choice. Ignorance makes real choice impossible.”
"Ignorance allowed politicians to fool people and bad administrators to be re-elected."
Malala Yousafzai
The fifth freedom is freedom from ignorance.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Science and Peace will triumph over Ignorance and War...
Louis Pasteur
The greatest of all the accomplishments of 20th century science has been the discovery of human ignorance
Lewis Thomas
"Being locked up is one thing, but to have no concept of confinement, to be ignorant of its terms and never understand that struggle is useless - that's what hell must be like."
David Sedaris
