Pico Iyer 3: The beauty of what we'll never know


Pico Iyer at TEDSummit 2016
The beauty of what we'll never know  (transcript)
Summary
I've heard that currently, the answers almost all students say are the same because there is the internet.

People think that they know everything, they can know many things quickly, and they don't think that they don't know many things.
And then they give up something that  they try to know when they notice there are many things that they don't know.

However, the speaker tells us that what we don't know and what we try to know must be the power that pushes us forwards and lifts us up.

We have to think that it is wonderful for us to be able to make some new discovery.
This must be the true meaning of beauty that we'll never know.

Words in this stroy
exhilarate /verb/ make (someone) feel very happy, animated, or elated.
treacherous /adj/ disloyal, faithless
trishaw /noun/ a light three-wheeled vehicle with pedals, used in East Asia.
