Explanation & Answer

Wisdom, according to Socrates, is knowing that you know nothing.

I do not agree with his view because to me, being wise is knowing something so that you make the right judgement.

View is self contradictory

Please let me know if you need any clarification. I'm always happy to answer your questions.
