"For most people, we often marvel at the beauty of a sunrise or the magnificence of a full moon, but it is impossible to fathom the magnitude of the universe that surrounds us"
- Richard H. Baker
About this Quote
This quote by Richard H. Baker speaks with the magnitude of the universe and just how it is impossible to genuinely comprehend its magnitude. We can value the elegance of a daybreak or the magnificence of a moon, but these are only small glimpses of the universe. Deep space is a lot bigger than we can envision, as well as it is filled with wonders that we can only start to understand. It is a suggestion that we are just a small component of something a lot bigger which we should take the time to value the appeal of deep space around us. It is a reminder to take a go back and also marvel at the splendour of the universe and all that it has.
"What is real is not the external form, but the essence of things... it is impossible for anyone to express anything essentially real by imitating its exterior surface"
