Summary

This quote suggests that it is more beneficial to have a partial or incomplete version of something rather than having nothing at all.

We might describe it as the kind of thought prevalent in early childhood, when everything is new and everything has meaning.

It takes logical, rational acts and facts of the world you know, the snippets of your experience, the bits and pieces of your language capabilities, and perceives connections, patterns, and relationships in them.
