Summary

This quote compares the mind to an iceberg, suggesting that much like an iceberg, only a small portion of our thoughts, emotions, and mental processes are visible to others. The iceberg's seven-eighths hidden beneath the water symbolizes the vast depths of consciousness that remain unseen. It serves as a reminder that what we perceive in others' behavior is just a fraction of their true thoughts and experiences, reminding us of the complexity and hidden depths within the human mind.
