I agree with the statement ignorance is bliss. There are just some things better left unknown. For example when and how we will die knowing that would cause us to live differently then we would have if we hadn't known we would try to avoid it. It relates to Faustus because he clearly disagree's strongly with that statement he decides to go after ultimate know;edge and wisdom no matter the consequences even if it means an eternity in hell.

Yes, I do agree that in some circumstances that "Ignorance is Bliss." This relates to Faustus because at the end of the story he knows exactly when he will die, and he becomes scared of the inevitable. He wants to repent but he has already gained the knowledge so there is no going back. The knowledge he gains he is not able to handle the thought of it all. If Faustus were to never know and be "Ignorant" he would be more at peace. Bliss in this phrase can mean serenity and peacefulness. Ignorance is bliss is true in Faustus's case.
