We simply do not understand our place in the universe and have not the courage to admit it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
No one who has understood even a fraction of what science has told us about the universe can fail to be in awe of both the cosmos and of science.
The effort to understand the universe is one of the very few things that lifts human life a little above the level of farce, and gives it some of the grace of tragedy.
I think my proper response is complete amazement and awe at the universe that we are in, and how it works is just far more complicated than humans will ever properly understand.
We're probably a couple of freaks who've created their own little universe, are living in our own little world and that's the only place where we can survive.
Can't you see, we are in a dialogue with the universe?
I believe that we haven't begun to understand the many forces that bind the physical world, any more than we understand our own minds and what they're capable of.
I don't pretend to understand the Universe - it's a great deal bigger than I am.
You are the universe, you aren't in the universe.
The Universe is under no obligation to make sense to you.
My view is that you don't tell the universe what to do. The universe is how it is, and it's our job to figure it out.
