OUR “MIND’S EYE
We may almost say that there are two sorts of people in the world—the foolish, who think they see all there is to see. and the wise, who know that they do not. This applies to seeing with the eyes of our heads and to seeing with our minds. Even with actual seeing, and the best and brightest eyes, we see only a litle of what is there, and usually see only its surface. Then our eyes only see certain kinds of light. There are other kinds, which are darkness to us; yet we know that they can be seen by the eye of ants. And they can be seen by the lifeless eye of the camera, which has seen for us hundreds of thousands of stars which our eyes have never seen.
