Experience has shown, and a true philosophy will always show, that a vast, perhaps the larger, portion of truth arises from the seemingly irrelevant.

About This Quote

I love this quote. I think it is so true. It has been said that “Experience has shown, and a true philosophy will always show, that a vast, perhaps the larger, portion of truth arises from the seemingly irrelevant.” People often tell us that we should pay attention to what we learn in school and then forget about it as soon as we graduate. This quote rebuts that idea.

It tells us to look at what we have learned and take it with us into our adulthood. We should also use this quote to remind ourselves to pay attention to the seemingly irrelevant things in life because they are often the things that can make a huge difference.
