Well said H.L.


He who knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool. Shun him.
He who knows not and knows that he knows not is a child. Teach him.
He who knows and knows not that he knows is asleep. Wake him.
He who knows and knows that he knows is a wise man. Follow him. (Arab
Proverb)


    When I looked this up to quote it a whole bunch of web sites
attributed 
this quote to Bruce Lee. Talk about fools... My father was quoting this
to 
me over 50 years ago and had learned it as a child himself... Bruce Lee 
just spoke a line from a script...
