Quote by John Wheeler
We live on an island surrounded by a sea of ignorance. As our island of knowledge grows, so does the shore of our ignorance.
Summary
This quote suggests that our understanding of the world is limited and always expanding. The "island of knowledge" represents what we know, while the "sea of ignorance" represents what we don't know. As we gain more knowledge and understanding, the "island" grows, but so does our awareness of how much we still don't know. It highlights the idea that the pursuit of knowledge is a continuous journey, and the more we learn, the more we realize there is still much more to discover.
