Quote by Ray Charles

What is a soul? It's like electricity - we don't really know what it is, but it's a force that can light a room.

What is a soul? It's like electricity - we don't really know

Summary

This quote likens the elusive nature of a soul to electricity. Just as we may struggle to define or understand what a soul truly is, we similarly lack complete knowledge about electricity. However, both possess a certain power or force. In the case of electricity, it can illuminate a room. Similarly, the soul is symbolized as something that possesses the potential to bring light, meaning, or vitality to a person's existence, even if its essence remains mysterious and difficult to fully grasp.
