Hi friend,
I'm giving you only an example, it should help you well enough to write another one or two paragraphs about other poems by the author, before you go to the conclusion.
The quote "The great enemy of knowledge is not ignorance it is illusion of knowledge"mentioned above was first used by best-selling author, educator, and librarian Daniel J. Boorstin in January,1984 . It was again used by Stephen Hawking later.This quote warns us to be aware of the flaw of illusion of knowledge.
First of all, let me explain to you - what is illusion of knowledge?It refers to one’s faulty and dubious assumption about a thing or fact. It can lead to our over-confident brains to leave us with a false sense of security about daily decisions.
We all experience this sort of illusory knowledge, even for the simplest things.People who wrongly assume they have knowledge and understanding of people rarely listen to others.People who think they have all the knowledge they need, never ask for help, and they never look for knowledge in the first place.
If we don't know something, it means we are ignorant of something, but if we don't know the reality and we have an illusion that we know the reality, it means we have an illusion of knowledge and not exactly knowledge.One can bring himself in more trouble if he knows the wrong thing rather than knowing nothing at all.
To get rid of ignorance, you have to identify and remove the incorrect models of thinking from your mind.Its always better to know that you don't know than to have an illusion that you know.
Remember, the truly knowledgeable are those who succeed at staying abreast of their ignorance, glimpsing the broad contours of what they do not know. We must have complete knowledge of our goals, responsibilities, and aspirations. You may be anyone but always remember illusion of knowledge about something is dangerous for not only you but for others also.
Hope it helps!
