Quote by Thomas Carlyle

The uttered part of a man's life, let us always repeat, bears to the unuttered, unconscious part a small unknown proportion. He himself never knows it, much less do others.


The uttered part of a man's life, let us always repeat, bear

Summary

This quote suggests that there is a significant part of a person's life that remains unexpressed and unconscious to both themselves and others. It highlights the limited understanding we have of ourselves and the complexity of our inner thoughts and emotions. Despite our efforts to articulate and communicate our experiences, there will always be a substantial portion that remains undiscovered and hidden from our own awareness as well as the perceptions of those around us.
