Quote

Nothing ever becomes real till it is experienced.

John KeatsLetter to George and Georgiana Keats (1819)

Note

Keats reminds us that ideas remain abstract until we live them. No matter how clearly a concept is explained, it only becomes truly meaningful when we encounter it ourselves. This line values direct experience over secondhand knowledge, gently inviting us to step into life rather than merely observe it from a distance.
