Quote by Ray Bradbury

We are an impossibility in an impossible universe.

We are an impossibility in an impossible universe.

Summary

This quote suggests that our existence as conscious beings in a vast and complex universe is inherently paradoxical. It implies that the odds of life, particularly intelligent life like us, emerging and evolving in such an incomprehensible universe are tremendously slim. It highlights the unique and improbable nature of our existence, emphasizing that we are a remarkable contradiction within an overall framework of impossibility. The quote may serve as a reminder of just how incredible and precious our existence is in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.

If someone is monitoring that, they could phone up if the user has forgotten to take some medication. This could save hundreds of dollars in medical fees later. What's missing?
