Summary
This quote suggests that while doubt may be unpleasant or unsettling, having absolute certainty about something is a foolish and absurd state to be in. It conveys the idea that doubt, despite its uncomfortable nature, is a more realistic and rational response than claiming absolute certainty. It implies that being open to questioning and considering different perspectives is preferable to holding rigid and unwavering beliefs without room for doubt or possibility of error.
