About this Quote

This quote by Heinrich Heine speaks with the concept that experience is a valuable instructor. It indicates that the very best way to find out is through experience, as it can supply important lessons that can't be taught in a class. Nevertheless, the quote also implies that the expense of finding out through experience can be high. This might refer to the physical, emotional, and financial costs connected with finding out through experience. It might also refer to the reality that mistakes made through experience can be costly and difficult to recuperate from. Ultimately, this quote functions as a pointer that while experience can be an excellent teacher, it can also be a costly one.
