George Spencer-Brown Quotes

Unfortunately We Find Systems Of Education Today That Have Departed So Far From The Plain Truth That They Now Teach Us To Be Proud Of What We Know And Ashamed Of Ignorance. This Is Doubly Corrupt. It Is Corrupt Not Only Because Pride Is In Itself A Mortal Sin, But Also Because To Teach Pride In Knowledge Is To Put An Effective Barrier Against Any Advance Upon What Is Already Known, Since It Makes One Ashamed To Look Beyond The Bounds Imposed By One's Ignorance.

To Any Person Prepared To Enter With Respect Into The Realm Of This Great And Universal Ignorance, The Secrets Of Being Will Eventually Unfold, And They Will Do So In A Measure According To His Freedom From Natural And Indoctrinated Shame In His Respect Of Their Revelation.
