There is more information available than a single person can know, even about a very small and focused area of expertise. A wise person recognizes that there is information he does not know, and based upon this knowledge seeks out others who have that information and knowledge.
Foolish people tend to believe, or at least spout the opinion, that they know everything they need to know - they tend to not seek additional information or knowledge and are limited to whatever information they already have.

This comes from Shakespeare's As You Like It and means that a fool is foolish because he doesn't know about what he is ignorant of whereas the wise man, however knowledgeable, is well aware of the far greater expanse of knowledge about which he is ignorant.>>>>>>>Meaning One who knows and knows that he knows... His horse of wisdom will reach the skies. One who knows, but doesn't know that he knows... He is fast asleep, so you should wake him up! One who doesn't know, but knows that he doesn't know... His limping mule will eventually get him home. One who doesn't know and doesn't know that he doesn't know... He will be eternally lost in his hopeless oblivion!
