Quote by Alan Cohen

You will find truth more quickly through delight than gravity. Let out a little more string on your kite.

You will find truth more quickly through delight than gravit

Summary

This quote advises that we can discover truth and knowledge more effectively when we approach it with delight and playfulness rather than being too serious. By using the metaphor of a kite, it suggests that we should let go of our inhibitions and allow ourselves to be open to new experiences and ideas, just as we release more string on a kite to let it fly higher. In other words, the quote encourages us to embrace curiosity, wonder, and excitement in our pursuit of truth, as these qualities can lead us to insights and understanding more rapidly and enjoyably.
