Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.
George Bernard Shaw

Reflection

I remember then in High School. The teacher asked a question and nobody knew the answer to, I thought everyone was so dumb and I bragged about how I knew the answer to the question.
I was finally given the platform to answer the question and I was utterly wrong.
I got laughed at by everyone and I felt ashamed.
This taught me a valuable lesson.
Beware of false Knowledge, it is definitely more dangerous than ignorance.
If you don't know, admit you don't and learn, rather than give a false knowledge of that which you think is true.

Stephen Hawkings made a similar statement:

And it's not just students for who this should be a source of humility, teachers are arguably even less immune from the pitfalls of the illusion of knowledge. Always keep questioning what you think you know, especially those things you might consider axiomatic.
