Ambiguity is very interesting in writing; it's not very interesting in science.

I'm a participant in the doctrine of constructive ambiguity.

I look for ambiguity when I'm writing because life is ambiguous.

If I take refuge in ambiguity, I assure you that it's quite conscious.

I would like to provoke ambiguous responses in my readers.

Ambiguity is necessary in some of my stories, not in all. In those, it certainly contributes to the richness of the story. I doubt that thematic closure is never attainable.

Neurosis is the inability to tolerate ambiguity.

The mark of a mature, psychologically healthy mind is indeed the ability to live with uncertainty and ambiguity, but only as much as there really is. Uncertainty is no virtue when the facts are clear, and ambiguity is mere obfuscation when more precise terms are applicable.

Accepting that the world is full of uncertainty and ambiguity does not and should not stop people from being pretty sure about a lot of things.
