starting quotations

According to Nicholas Carr, “But it’s a differendt kind of reading, and behind it lies a different kind of thinking-perhaps even a new sense of the self.” This says to me how people today communicate with one another. How even in reading, people have changed themselves and how they address the world. People are afraid of communication on all levels, and yet communication is so important for our survival.
Saul Wurman sates, “When you can admit to ignorance, you will realize that if ignorance isn’t exactly bliss, it is an ideal state from which to learn.” When you can just go with truth, you allow yourself to grow. Just admitting that you may not have the answers is hard, but what a great place to start learning. I know that I still struggle with this issue, ignorance is such a frightening thing. If I can remind myself of the learning I am starving myself from, maybe I can grow in knowledge.
