^^^That is from Plato's Allegory of the cave. You should check it out, even if it's just a summary...it's a good read.
"How to understand the sun by the shadows on the wall?"

I believe what he's alluding to is how nothing aside from the opening quote has anything whatsoever to do with Allegory of the Cave, so to say both verses are conceptually the same is the most retarded thing I've read in a very long time and I now feel stupider having read it. Thanks for reading one line and claiming overstanding of the verse you useless tit.
Everyone else, thank you, I appreciate ya taking the time to read this.
