*Late*~Excused~ 5/16 The Apology

(Underlined stuff is on paper) [duh]

We'll we did the debate today but i didn't have the reading so i didn't do the debate but this came up during the debate. Mr. Jana said, "Wisdom is knowing that you don't know"

This struck me because i thought being wise was that you learned from other peoples mistakes but Socrates is saying that wisdom is knowing when your wrong or in other words ignorance. Socrates is saying that if you know not of everything then you have truly met the standards of wisdom. Also people who say they know all, they truly know nothing.
