Summary

This quote suggests that relying solely on our immediate sensory perceptions can lead to deception and illusion, as our senses can sometimes be limited or misleading. However, when our knowledge and understanding surpasses what we can directly sense, we are able to see beyond surface appearances and recognize the truth. It implies that intellectual comprehension and deeper insight can provide us with a clearer understanding of the world, enabling us to differentiate between perception and reality.
