The quotation, 'To know that you do not know is the best. To pretend to know when you do not is a disease,' expresses a classical sentiment that can be explained as follows: Truth, insight, and wisdom, even health and happiness (or, all that is the 'best'), follow from genuine knowledge. Thus, to know that one does not know is a step towards all that is 'best' for oneself. Moreover, pretending that one does not know must be a step away from it: this, for the source of the quotation and also in the classical tradition, is one of the worst afflictions (it is even a 'disease') of humankind.
The quote highlights the value of humility in acknowledging our limitations and learning from what we don't know. It warns against the dangers of feigning knowledge or expertise, which can lead to ignorance and close-mindedness. Embracing our ignorance can open the doors to growth, curiosity, and authentic understanding.
