Summary

This quote suggests that our knowledge as human beings is inherently limited, and that is why disciplines like science and philosophy exist. It implies that if we had complete and comprehensive knowledge about the world and ourselves, these disciplines would have no purpose.

They serve as tools to expand our knowledge and provide us with frameworks for interpreting and addressing complex phenomena and existential questions.
