We know nothing of what will happen in future, but by the analogy of experience.

Summary

This quote suggests that we cannot predict the future with certainty, as it remains unknown to us. However, we can use our past experiences as a basis for understanding and making assumptions about what might occur in the future. By analyzing patterns and similarities in our past encounters, we can make educated guesses and draw analogies that provide some insight into what the future might hold. While not foolproof, this approach allows us to approach the unknown with some level of understanding based on what we have learned from our past.
