Outside of gravity not much can be proven, and even less conveyed.

When Aristotle was in the employ of the King of Macedonia to tutor his son Alexander, the King was alarmed that Ari was writing down his system of philosophy. Aristotle assured the King that unless he personally taught his method of philosophy it could not be grasped. Aristotle's excuse for writing was as a testimony to himself, so his name would live longer than him. However his writings influenced every philosopher that followed, even ones like Kant who disagreed with him were hopelessly chained to his dominate mind.

And we have Gorgias who said nothing can be known or conveyed, and G. K. Chesterton who said, "Reason is itself a matter of faith. It is an act of faith to assert that our thoughts have any relation to reality at all."
