“It is as the father of the Encyclopedia that Denis Diderot merits eternal recognition.

“The Socratic maxim that the recognition of our ignorance is the beginning of wisdom has profound significance for our understanding of society. Most of the advantages of social life, especially in the more advanced forms that we call "civilization" rest on the fact that the individual benefits from more knowledge than he is aware of. It might be said that civilization begins when the individual in the pursuit of his ends can make use of more knowledge than he has himself acquired and when he can transcend the boundaries of his ignorance by profiting from knowledge he does not himself possess.” DoeSaidEndsFactsUseMightFormIndividualSocialUnderstandingIgnoranceCivilizationBenefitsAdvantageProfoundPursuitBoundariesRecognitionSignificanceMaximsSocial LifeMore KnowledgeSocratic Author:Friedrich August von Hayek
