Re: Quotes

That's actually pretty good . It's not what I had in mind though...

1. How can nothing be certain when you know everything is possible?

2. If everything were possible, then knowing the uncertain would be possible. Meaning everything would be certain. Yet at the same time everything could be uncertain ... Hey, everything's possible
