I want to know Carl Sagan too.

“An expert is one who knows more and more about less and less until he knows absolutely everything about nothing.”

― Nicholas Butler

This is a real picture of Sagan, taken right after he memorized the recipe for an apple pie.

If you thought that science was certain - well, that is just an error on your part.

Richard Feynman

I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned.

Source unclear, often attributed to Richard Feynman.

How about I want to have my inference process to negate error bound to my priors?

... and if I can't find the answers, I want to accept what I don't know or will never know

It all goes back to a prayer or mantra I learned a long time ago in addictions recovery

"Grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change,
courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference"

There are a lot of old timers and religious people who originally started this with the word 'God' but in recent years, it's been changed by some to allow a less religious connotation. It doesn't mean anyone is less religious, or less spiritual, or better or worse .. it is just an acceptance of things we can't change, having the courage to change when we should and having the wisdom to know the difference.

It's a mantra and a saying that I live by.

Who doesnt know anything, has to believe everything

I was trying to find out what year this was from, hoping for the possibility at least that it was a dunk on X Files. Instead I found totally not automated, manually curated pages like this:

This is why people preferred Mulder.

You can only know that at the present moment a doubting being exists. Anything else is just empirical, and therefore not true knowledge.

Is that nail rotted or maybe it has a fungus? Eww
