Quote by Samuel Butler
A blind man knows he cannot see, and is glad to be led, though it

A blind man knows he cannot see, and is glad to be led, though it be by a dog; but he that is blind in his understanding, which is the worst blindness of all, believes he sees as the best, and scorns a guide. – Samuel Butler
