I Am Wiser Than This Man; It Is Likely That Neither Of Us Knows Anything Worthwhile, But He Thinks He
I am wiser than this man; it is likely that neither of us knows anything worthwhile, but he thinks he knows something when he does not, whereas when I do not know, neither do I think I know; so I am likely to be wiser than he to this small extent—that I do not think I know what I do not know.
Socrates, Apology

The Rime of The Ancient Mariner
Day after day, day after day, We stuck, nor breath nor motion; As idle as a painted ship Upon a painted ocean. Water, water, every where, And all the boards did shrink; Water, water, every where, Nor any drop to drink.
- Samuel Taylor Coleridge
