"What our eyes behold may well be the text of life but one's meditations on the text and the disclosures of these meditations are no less a part of the structure of reality"
- Wallace Stevens
About this Quote
This quote by Wallace Stevens talks to the concept that our physical truth is only part of the structure of truth. Our physical senses can only take us up until now in understanding the world around us. It is through our inner reflections and meditations that we can get a much deeper understanding of the world and our place in it. Our ideas and sensations can assist us to reveal truths that our physical senses can not. This quote encourages us to look beyond the physical world and to explore the depths of our inner selves in order to gain a more complete understanding of reality.
