I'm pretty sure Thrall stole that from the Oracle at Delphi


Couldn't find a source of that myself. Feel free to provide one.


I just remember reading similar in Plato's Apology, it's not verbatim, but the sentiment is definitely Delphic!

Ha, I'd say everything regarding Socrates is similar to that quote.

I hate how people choose random quotes that they choose to implement in their everyday live or something. Something like "Don't crybecause it's over, smile because it happened." I'm sorry but I.simply can't stand these. Maybe it's because I think i'm so much more
intelligent
than most others, and hope to envolve (evolve?) some kind of ultimate quote, which sums up all my views. Or at least the
recognitional (needlessly superfluous and incorrect) I hope to acquire some day.

This whole answer would end in a huge monologue of me talking bout how + Show Spoiler +
my life turned upside down, an I'd like to take a minute just sit right there....
the humans will finally end up enlightened after billions and billions of years travelling through the universe.

All that I can say right now is one of my favourite quotes though (superfluous), which proves to be true in an ironical(and one last for good luck...) way:

I know that I know nothing.

In a double irony of poetic justice I mixed up "Superfluous and Superlative" originally


Wow first off I want to blame it on my mobile phone's autocorrect.
If you buy it, stop reading here pls.
Secondly you made me feel like the biggest retard on planet earth somehow, but at the same time helped me to prove what I stated with my quote. Err ... I guess I need to thank you now obi wan. Well... Thank you.
