This is a quotation from an English poet called Thomas Gray born December 26 1716 and died 30 June 1771 from the poem
Ode on a Distant Prospect of Eton College
"Yet ah! why should they know their fate?
Since sorrow never comes too late,
And happiness too swiftly flies.
Thought would destroy their paradise.
No more; where ignorance is bliss,
'Tis folly to be wise."
"Ignorance is bless" is the incorrect adage. "Ignorance is bliss" is the correct adage.
A saying. It means that not knowing something means you will not worry about it, and thus you will be happy in that ignorance.
The phrase comes from a Thomas Grey poem entitled 'Ode on a distance prospect of Eton College' dated 1742

People say ignorance is bliss because the meaning of ignorance is to not have knowledge of something. Imagine a life where you had no knowledge of war, pain, suffering, hatred, etc. It would be bliss because you wouldn't know what anything other than being content was. Knowledge can be very painful sometimes, that is why.
