Nothing we use or hear or touch can be expressed in words that equal what we are given by the senses.

Summary

This quote highlights the limitations of language in capturing the full experience of our senses. It suggests that there is a gap between what we perceive through our senses and the ability of words to fully articulate those experiences. No matter how much we try to describe something we see, hear, or touch, it can never truly capture the richness and depth of the sensory input we receive. The quote reminds us of the ineffable nature of our sensory experiences and the inherent limitations of linguistic expression in fully encapsulating them.
