"We believe that electricity exists, because the electric company keeps sending us bills for it, but we cannot figure out how it travels inside wires"
- Dave Barry
About this Quote
This quote by Dave Barry is a funny way of pointing out the fact that, although we use electrical energy in our daily lives, we don't really comprehend how it works. We understand that electricity exists due to the fact that we can see its impacts, such as lights switching on when we turn a switch, however we do not know how it really takes a trip through wires. This quote is a reminder that, although we utilize electrical energy every day, we don't really comprehend the science behind it. It also works as a reminder that, although we may not understand something, it does not mean it isn't genuine. We can still use electricity and gain from it, even if we don't understand how it works.
