Quote by Leo Tolstoy
He did not, and could not, understand the meaning of words apart from their context. Every word and action of his was the manifestation of an activity unknown to him, which was his life.
Summary
This quote suggests that the person being referred to lacks the ability to comprehend the true significance or implications of words and actions without considering the larger context in which they occur. Their every word and action merely reflects an unconscious expression of their existence, with no conscious understanding of the underlying activities or motivations driving them. This implies that the person's actions are not consciously calculated, but rather spontaneous and unconscious.
