About this Quote

This quote by Aldous Huxley recommends that science has actually not had the ability to discuss the world around us. Instead, the more we find out, the more mysterious and complicated the world appears. This suggests that the more we understand, the more we recognize how little we know. The quote also recommends that the darkness surrounding us is extensive, suggesting that there are still numerous unknowns and mysteries that science has yet to uncover. This quote highlights the significance of continuing to explore and find out, as science has only scratched the surface area of the world's intricacy. It also functions as a reminder that there is still much to be discovered and that science has just started to uncover the secrets of the universe.
