By the way that was a quote by socrates if you didn't know.
One thing I know, I know nothing.

I like that quote. People who already think they know everything are very hard to teach and have a hard time learning, you know?

Was he concealing a deeper meaning in those few words?
'I know nothing'. Everything begun with the nothing we have the nothing concealed within us, we have the nothing all around us-it is invisible to the eye yet is everything from force to light to gravity to god it is everything so did Socrates really mean he knows everything by knowing the nothing?
Clever man I'd say because so many miss the real meaning behind such few words.
Do I know if I am correct. When I look between the lines I see what is concealed, when I look further than the box I can see what is invisible to the eye. I know I'm correct if I go by first thought, only when I stop and think does doubt sneak in but only time really shows me how correct I am and I am only too aware of how I make mistakes, but they are only lessons to learn by, to read something correctly by knowing where I went wrong.

I like that quote but wonder what "you" are asking.

isn't it great not to have to know anything when you really know nothing and can accept that fact.
