Ignorance & Stupidity Quotes

Is there a difference between ignorance and stupidity? Yes, though most of us would think it means the same. Ignorance is the state in which a person is not aware of things, but this should not imply that they are not intelligent.

Therefore, it’s much easier to overcome ignorance than stupidity.
