It is not we who know things first and then act; rather, our clearest understanding often emerges in the very act of courageous expression.

“हम पहले सब कुछ जानकर फिर कार्य नहीं करते; बल्कि हमारी सबसे स्पष्ट समझ अक्सर साहसपूर्वक अभिव्यक्ति और कर्म करने के दौरान ही प्रकट होती है।”
“આપણે પહેલા બધું જાણીને પછી કાર્ય કરતા નથી; પરંતુ આપણી સૌથી સ્પષ્ટ સમજણ ઘણીવાર હિંમતપૂર્વક અભિવ્યક્તિ અને કર્મ કરવા દરમિયાન જ પ્રગટ થાય છે.”
Clarity is not achieved by endless hesitation in isolation; engaging earnestly with the world awakens insights our mind could not reach alone.
Written by Heinrich von Kleist (born October 18, 1777) in his celebrated philosophical essay on language and human consciousness.
