Quote by Michael Polanyi
I shall suggest, on the contrary, that all communication relies, to a noticeable extent on evoking knowledge that we cannot tell, and that all our knowledge of mental processes, like feelings or conscious intellectual activities, is based on a knowledge which we cannot tell.
Summary
This quote suggests that communication heavily depends on evoking knowledge that cannot be explicitly expressed. It argues that our understanding of mental processes, such as emotions and conscious thoughts, is grounded in a type of knowledge that is beyond verbal articulation. In other words, there are aspects of human experience that cannot be fully conveyed or comprehended through language alone.
