Remember the Renaissance? - Climber

Remember the Renaissance?

They say a man could claim

To know all there was to know

And they always follow it up

By arguing that such a claim’s impossible now

But I think when we bow amazed

At the feet of information

We mistake bigness for greatness

Teach me the reckless way

Where a man can claim

To know at least himself well

But I think when we bow amazed

At the feet of information

We mistake bigness for greatness
