Quote by Bob Dylan

He who is not busy being born is busy dying.

He who is not busy being born is busy dying.

Summary

This famous quote by Bob Dylan encapsulates the idea that in life, there is no stagnation. If one is not actively engaged in growing, evolving, and embracing new experiences, they are essentially regressing and slowly deteriorating. To "be busy being born" implies a continuous pursuit of personal growth, discovering new aspects of oneself, and exploring life's possibilities. On the other hand, those who choose not to seek growth or development are essentially "busy dying," as they stagnate, lose their zest for life, and miss out on the richness of new experiences.

It is known that there is an infinite number of worlds, but that not every one is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite nuber of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so if every planet in the Universe has a populations of zero then the entire population of the Universe must also be zero, and any people you may actually meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination.
