"It is not because the truth is too difficult to see that we make mistakes.... we make mistakes because the easiest and most comfortable course for us is to seek insight where it accords with our emotions - especially selfish ones." - Alexander Solzhenitsyn

I agree. Often we make wrong choices not because we did not know, but because that choice was an easier one to make and it made us feel better, not because it put us in a difficult place.
