Quote by Rebecca West
There is no wider gulf in the universe than yawns between those on the hither and thither side of vital experience.
Summary
This quote suggests that there is a significant divide between individuals who have different life experiences. It implies that the gap between those who have undergone significant or transformative experiences and those who haven't is vast and insurmountable. This gulf highlights the difficulty of truly understanding or empathizing with someone whose life has diverged markedly from our own. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing and respecting the diverse experiences that shape each person's perspective and the limits of relating to others through sheer conjuncture.
