What does this quote mean by Will Rogers?
-
I have to write a one page double spaced journal for English. The topic is the quote "Everybody is ignorant, only on different subjects." Will Rogers. I don't know what that quote means or what to write about. How do I write a journal when the topic is that quote? Can some one explain what the quote means or what they think it means. Also who was Will Rogers? I need ideas and information about this quote so I can write my journal.

Answer:
What it means is that everyone knows about something. You may be totally ignorant about nuclear physics, but infinitely knowledgeable about baking cakes. Or the other way round.

I think it means that everybody excells on different subjects and fails in others. You can write a journal that starts w/ the topic and then tell what it means, who will rogers was, other quotes he wrote, etc. William Penn Adair “Will” Rogers (November 4, 1879 – August 15, 1935) was a Cherokee-American cowboy, comedian, humorist, social commentator, vaudeville performer and actor. He was the father of U.S. Congressman and WWII Veteran Will Rogers, Jr. Known as Oklahoma's favorite son,[1] Rogers was born to a prominent Indian Territory family and learned to ride horses and use a lariat so well that he was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for throwing three ropes at once—one around the neck of a horse, another around the horse's rider, and a third around all four legs of the horse[citation needed]. He ultimately traveled around the world three times, made 71 movies (50 silent films and 21 "talkies"),[2] wrote more than 4,000 nationally-syndicated newspaper columns,[3] and became a world-famous figure. By the mid-1930s, Rogers was adored by the American people, and was the top-paid movie star in Hollywood at the time. Rogers died in 1935 while on an around-the-world trip with aviator Wiley Post, when their small airplane crashed near Barrow, Alaska Territory. haha wikipedia is handy! n e ways, GL!
