We do not know. I do not know ... and you do not know. — Frank Apisa


IMO, all of us philosophers (and all of us scientists too) should repeat this to ourselves at least once a day. :up: :smile:

I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it is much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers that might be wrong. If we will only allow that, as we progress, we remain unsure, we will leave opportunities for alternatives. We will not become enthusiastic for the fact, the knowledge, the absolute truth of the day, but remain always uncertain … In order to make progress, one must leave the door to the unknown ajar. — Richard P. Feynman

Thank you.

Unfortunately, for many "I do not know" is something that can never be said or acknowledged.

Good quote from Feynman...a complicated man, but a guy filled with great quotes.
