A Persian Proverb

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 wise-follow him.

What a wonderful area! You must pay close attention when reading the above. Or, like me, you'll be sitting there going, "Huh?" the first time through. LOL
