虽有佳肴,弗食,不知其旨也;虽有至道,弗学,不知其善也。
Although there are delicates of the season, one cannot know their delicious flavors if one does not taste them; although there are ideal and perfect principles, one cannot know about their true significance if one does not learn them. (Used metaphorically to mean that genuine knowledge comes from practice.)
