You always admire what you really don't understand.

The only things one can admire at length are those one admires without knowing why.

I liked things better when I didn't understand them.

Je connais peu les femmes; mais il me semble qu'il est difficile qu'on admire ce qu'on ne comprend pas

Do you not think that there are things which you cannot understand, and yet which are; that some people see things that others cannot?

To be part of something one doesn't in the least understand is, I think, one of the most intriguing things about life.

إن كل شيء لا نفهمه يعتبر معجزة

We can love completely what we cannot completely understand.

Nothing is so much admired, and so little understood, as wit.

I cannot help thinking that there is something to admire in everyone, even if you do not approve of them.

Not being understood may be taken as a sign that there is much in one to understand.

There is something you find interesting, for a reason hard to explain. It is hard to explain because you have never read it on any page; there you begin.

It is our ignorance of things that causes all our admiration and chiefly excites our passions.

Ignorance is always ready to admire itself. Procure yourself critical friends.
