Quote by Horace

What we learn only through the ears makes less impression upon our minds than what is presented to the trustworthy eye.

What we learn only through the ears makes less impression up

Summary

This quote suggests that information received through sight has a more significant impact on our minds than information received through hearing. Visual stimuli, which we perceive with our eyes, are deemed more reliable and have a stronger influence on our understanding and memory. Unlike auditory input, visual presentations provide tangible proof that leaves a lasting impression on our consciousness. Thus, what we see firsthand holds greater weight and effectiveness in shaping our thoughts and beliefs.
