Quote by Bertrand Russell

Science is what you know, philosophy what you don't know.

Science is what you know, philosophy what you don't know.

Summary

This quote suggests that science deals with empirical facts and knowledge that can be quantitatively measured and explained through experimentation and observation. On the other hand, philosophy deals with speculative questions and topics that cannot be answered through scientific methods. It implies that science focuses on understanding the known world, while philosophy seeks to explore and understand the unknown aspects of reality. Ultimately, this quote highlights the complementary roles of science and philosophy in the quest for understanding and knowledge.
