About this Quote

This quote speaks with the concept that there are truths that exist beyond our physical world, but that we are unable to access them because we do not have the capability to interpret them. These truths are intangible and formless, and can not be revealed in words. This recommends that there is a world of understanding and understanding that is beyond our present comprehension, which we are not able to gain access to it since we lack the tools to interpret it. This quote encourages us to think beyond the real world and to explore the intangible realities that exist beyond our present understanding. It suggests that if we can find a method to translate these truths, we can access to a greater understanding of the world around us.
