"La science n'a rien expliqué ; plus nous en savons, plus le monde devient fantastique et plus les ténèbres environnantes sont profondes."
— Aldous Huxley
Simplified Meaning:
When we learn more about the world through science, it can feel like the world becomes even more amazing and mysterious. Imagine you are peeling an onion, layer by layer. Each layer you take off shows another hidden layer underneath. As we discover new things, we also uncover new questions we didn't even know we had. Let's say you're interested in space. Learning how stars are born might lead you to wonder about the life of galaxies, which then makes you question the entire universe's beginning and end. Each new piece of knowledge opens up a whole new set of things we don't yet understand. So, instead of thinking that science solves all our questions, it actually shows us how much more there is to learn. It's like shining a flashlight in a dark room; the more you see, the more you realize how much is still hidden in the shadows. This can be exciting because it means there's always something new to discover. In your own life, never stop being curious and always be excited about what else you can learn, even if it leads to more questions.
