| Jan 21, 2022 at 19:05 | comment | added | Galen | I like this one a lot: "I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of uncertainty about different things, but I am not absolutely sure of anything and there are many things I don't know anything about, such as whether it means anything to ask why we're here. I don't have to know an answer." - Richard Feynman | |
