"True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us"

Socrates' quote talks with the suggestion that true wisdom is found in comprehending our very own constraints. It is just when we acknowledge exactly how little we understand about life, ourselves, and also the world around us that we can begin to get real knowledge. This knowledge is not located in the buildup of expertise, yet instead in the recognition of our very own lack of knowledge. By recognizing our own lack of understanding, we can start to appreciate the complexity of life and the world around us. We can also start to acknowledge the value of humility as well as the need to be open to learning from others. True knowledge is not found in the pursuit of knowledge, however in the acknowledgment of our very own constraints and also the determination to learn from others.
