Quote by Paul Davies

We will never fully explain the world by appealing to something outside it that must simply be accepted on faith, be it an unexplained God or an unexplained set of mathematical laws.

We will never fully explain the world by appealing to someth

Summary

This quote suggests that we cannot truly understand the world if we rely solely on unexplained concepts or beliefs.
