Quote by Deborah Harkness

The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science. Whoever does not know it and can no longer wonder, is as good as dead, and his eyes are dimmed (Albert Einstein)

The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious.

Summary

In this quote, Albert Einstein highlights the significance of the mysterious and unknown in our lives. He suggests that experiencing the mysterious is not only beautiful, but also essential for true artistic and scientific exploration. Einstein implies that those who no longer possess a sense of wonder and curiosity are essentially deprived of a vital element that brings life to their existence, likening them to being spiritually dead with their perception and understanding of the world diminished.
