never was there a truer sentence ever spoken

English to Chinese Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
http://blog.startwithwhy.com/refocus/2011/06/you-dont-know-w...

You don't know what you don't know; never was there a truer sentence ever spoken. The question is, knowing we don't know everything, what's the best way to learn more?

The answer is ironically obvious: look outside. I'm not talking about some existential vantage point, I mean literally, look outside. Step away from your desk and do something, see something, read something or listen to something that has nothing to do with your work. Do something that has nothing to do with what you know.

从未有人讲过(比这句)更真的一句话。

因为就像 I am who I am 一样,这样的话可以算是公理, 100 % 不会错。所以不可能比这样的话更真的话,也是是不可能有 101% 真的话。

哦, 抱歉,更正最后一句话如下:

所以不可能有比这样的话更真的话,也就是说不可能有 101%、102%...真的话。
