Favourite quotations "There is only one simple truth in this universe; that everything is beautifully and terrifyingly complex. Get used to it."

"Assume only that the future will shock and surprise you, this way you are always expecting it and are never truly or completely taken off guard."

"If you can't have truth which meets all the epistemic and linguistic justification criteria to say 'This is 100% true', then believe the claims and methods to reach and inquire into those claims that currently meet the most of those justification criteria. Just be ready to change your mind a lot and don't lose reasonable standards in scrutinising the universe. Don't make the standards so impossible that you might as well do nothing, since no form of data or thought will meet those standards."
