Summary

This quote suggests that when something is vague or lacks clarity, it might actually be closer to revealing a deeper truth or understanding. Instead of dismissing vagueness as a lack of knowledge or information, it implies that it can be a sign that one is on the brink of discovering a more profound truth that is difficult to articulate. It highlights the potential of embracing uncertainty and ambiguity as a necessary step towards grasping a more complete understanding of a concept or phenomenon.
