"The world is not comprehensible, but it is embraceable: through the embracing of one of its beings"
- Martin Buber
About this Quote
The quote is saying that the world in all its complexity can not be completely understood or comprehended by human beings. However, we can still get in touch with it and discover meaning in it by forming relationships with other beings, whether they are other people, animals, or aspects of nature. By "welcoming" these beings and recognizing the interconnectedness of all things, we can find a sense of belonging and function worldwide.
