" The more you know, the less sure you are. "
- Voltaire
When we try to dig deeper into one thing, we get to know it more and more, which makes us crave for the end of knowledge which does not exist.
Till the time we have partial information of something, we feel like it's the end of the subject and we know everything but once the knowledge grows about that subject, we come to know that there is more to what we already know and we start questioning the insights we gained. This makes us think more and be uncertain in life.
That's why the more you study or know about a thing, the less sure you become about everything.
There is no end to knowledge because life is a long journey where we have to learn constantly.
