“All knowing involves the possibility of being wrong.� -Unknown
This quote is a call to intellectual humility. By definition, if we dare to explore the annals of knowledge and risk holding onto ideas, we must account for the possibility that what we “know” is false. Keeping this in mind keeps us teachable. It is not a prescription for perpetual doubt because that assumes there is no such thing as true knowledge. However, we could accomplish nothing if no knowledge was true. Rather, this admonition counsels us to maintain vigilance in learning and acceptance of the truth that we are not God.
