I only know that I do not know anything.

A tricky question, I would say.

I was thinking about dying my hair, yes.

I do not send flowers to myself. I am allergic.

The only thing we can be sure of is our own ignorance.

Erm....

Science: When an object is totally immersed in water the apparent weight loss is equal to the weight of water displaced.

Invention: Contrary to popular opinion the greatest invention in history is the chocolate hobnob.

Philosophy: The weekend comes too slow and goes too quick.

Now come on...that's not quite true...You know how to ask a question! And that's a good start...only those who cannot ask questions are likely to really 'know nothing'!

What may be more accurate is -- as has been observed by some of those who have known more than most -- 'The more you know, the less you seem to know"...

The more you become aware of how much there is to know the more you realize how little of what there is to know you actually know...that's all I know! ;-)

I know my brain hurts!


I know implies you have knowledge of something
I do not know anything implies you have no knowledge!
You wrote a question without knowledge of how to write, what words to use, where to write it, and why you wrote it!
Obviously you didn't so you know 4 other things at least!
which negates the question. Its a false statement.

Try this > I think I am, therefore I am, I think!

I knew everything when I was in my 20s. Now I'm in my 40s I know much more, including that I know nothing. How does that work?

I had an aunt called Audrey. She ended up in RainHill, the old loony bin in LIverpool.

I know now that you asking a question, and next moment I will not know it, I will know, or focus on something else, then...and so on...we are all know one thing at the time, and next moment we already do not know what we new lately. That is how my existence look like...I know and I don't at the same time and at the moment....
