It is like a calm air which cannot be utilized for anything‚ but when that air turns into

What are differences between education and ignorance? Why do many people agree with a quote “ Education will never be as expensive as ignorance.”Most of the people who graduate from colleges know it is the fact that education costs them a huge amount of money.
