Quote by Terry Pratchett
God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players [i.e. everybody], to being involved in an obscure and complex variant of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who .
Summary
This quote, attributed to British author and humorist Terry Pratchett, is a whimsical take on the randomness and unpredictability of the universe. It suggests that instead of a random and chaotic existence, there is an intricate game being played by a divine force. However, this game is surrounded by mystery and uncertainty, leaving the players (all of humanity) groping in the dark, unaware of the rules and consequences, but still compelled to participate and make choices with infinite significance.
