Ignorance, after all, is your castle; and what an impenetrable fortress it is. For someone may tell you and tell you again of what is right, what is true, what the wits of mankind can achieve, and you content yourself with the sole fact you have internalised: that you are right, and everyone else is wrong. Whatever jewels are laid before you, you ignore, and treasure instead half-bricks and cobblestones as your Blue Hopes.

One is reminded of the old adage about playing a pigeon at chess.
