The phrase means that the more more you have been exposed to,
the more you have knowledge of. The phrases isn't talking only about traditional school learning,
but it broadens the idea of education to encompass all of a person's experiences as having a
contribution to the totality of education. For example, if you travel to a foreign country you
would "see" new and different foods, language, culture, experiences. All of these will contribute
to what you "know" about that place, and the world in general.
Every
time you see (do) something you new, you are increasing the store of things that shape your
understanding of the world. These experiences could be big or small: travel, a job, college, a
movie, a book, anything! It all adds up!
