Is Ignorance A Curse?
in General Discussions
It's, indeed, a curse. And this is how Shakespeare put it:"Ignorance is the curse of God;knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven."

Whether you believe in God or heavens that may spark off a debate but the supreme importance of knowledge in our life is something over which perfect agreement is possible! What do you think?

Good Night!

    Chinmoy,

    It would be more delightful if the quote is shared with one of your smiley which was missing from quiet sometime.. :lol: :cheer: :)

    Yes I agree with that and also want to remind that "Ignorance is a Bliss" which was also said by poet...and is valid too. :)

    Huh! That bliss arising out of ignorance could have been enjoyed by the great Bard alone!

    Another nice quote!! Thanks for sharing!

    Well, considering that the bliss enjoyed by ignorant people itself is a curse because it keeps them from gaining knowledge that further their lives more positively and enhance their knowledge!

    Did you understand what I just wrote? 'coz I seem to have lost it myself!!!

    Then an ignoramus can't differentiate between knowledge and ignorance and bliss and curse!Only the Great Bard had the knowledge to describe ignorance as bliss!!

    The perfect quote I remember is : It is foolish to be wise when ignorance is the bliss. Normally, it is nice to be knowledgeable. But there may be occasions when display of knowledge may harm.
