Poem
An ancient proverb states that he who knows, and knows that he knows, he is wise follow him, But how do we know that he knows? And knows the fact that he knows, and once we know that, then we know and know that we know, so why follow him? He also states that he who knows and knows not that he knows, he is uninformed inform him, But how are we to inform him, unless we know and know that we know, for if we don't we are in no great position to inform him than to inform ourselves? It also states that he who knows not and knows that he knows not he is ignorant teach him, But in order to know that you know not, you must know a little so if he knows a little, then he's on the right track so why teach him when we could teach ourselves to know and know that we know, It states in conclusion that he who knows not and knows that he knows not he is a fool shun him, But if he knows not and knows not that he knows not then he does not know even as much as he who knows not and knows that he knows not so why not help the fool instead of he who knows not but knows enough to know that he does not know. However, there is a new proverb on the horizon. It states, that for those who know and know that they know, those who know and know not that they know, those who know not and know they know not, and for those who know not and know not that they know not, The most astute thing to do is to know when to keep quiet so that no one else knows whay you do or do not know until you are absolutely positive of what you do and do not know, then keep trying to know until you know not, for he who knows not knows more!!
