Quote by Leo Tolstoy
We live in this world like a child who enters a room where a clever person is speaking. The child did not hear the beginning of the speech, and he leaves before the end; and there are certain things which he hears but does not understand.
Summary
This quote suggests that our existence in the world is similar to that of a child who enters a room where a knowledgeable person is speaking. Like the child, we are limited in our understanding and grasp of the world around us. We may not have experienced or comprehended the beginning or end of certain events or concepts, and thus there are things we encounter that we do not fully understand. It highlights our perennial uncertainty and the limitations of our knowledge and comprehension in the vastness of existence.
