Wiadomość, że ktoś z własnej woli rezygnuje z perspektywy pięćdziesięciu lat nudy sprawiła, że zmiękły mu kolana. Mając przed sobą pięćdziesiąt lat, zdołałby podnieść nudę do kategorii sztuki. Nie miałyby końca rzeczy których by nie robił.

The important thing is not to shout at this point, Vimes told himself. Do not…what do they call it…go postal? Treat this as a learning exercise. Find out why the world is not as you thought it was.

Terry PratchettTags: truth
What was the nature of the universe into which she had been born? Why did it exist at all? If it had a purpose, what was it? These seemed to her the only questions worth exploring. And the only valid technique evolved by humans for exploring such questions was the scientific method, a robust and self-correcting search for the truth. Yet it had become obvious to her since about the age of twelve that science as it had progressed so far – physics, chemistry, biology, all the rest – had only inched towards grappling with the true questions, the fundamentals. Those questions had only been addressed by theologians and philosophers, it seemed to her. Unfortunately, their answers were a mush of doubt, self-delusion and flummery that had probably done more harm than good. And yet that was all there was.
