My grandfather used to tell me: "What I know is that I know nothing". He used to tell me that even in his old age, he was still amazed by the things he discovered, just like a child. That taught me to always be humble and to understand the point of view of others and to always learn in life. So I will always remember this quote.
Your grandpa must've been Socrates ;)
Haha, he must have been. We always had interesting philosophical discussions.
I love this! And the memory and impression it left you of your grandpa!
