Science is what you know, philosophy is what you don't know

Summary

It implies that philosophy, on the other hand, explores the realm of concepts and questions that are yet to be fully understood or explained by scientific means. It emphasizes the role of philosophy in tackling the unknown aspects of our existence, beyond what science has been able to uncover.
