Though "meaningful" perhaps via some other understandings or
knowledge, by itself, the quote is hard to distinguish from a tautology.

Tautology has at least three distinct meanings:
* Tautology (logic), a statement true by virtue of its logical form.
* Tautology (rhetoric), undesirable use of redundant language that
adds no information.
* Truism, an assertion that is so obvious as to add nothing to a
discussion.
