Summary

This quote suggests that while science is instrumental in providing evidence and validating theories, intuition plays a crucial role in making new discoveries. Science relies on observation, experimentation, and logical reasoning to establish truths based on evidence. However, intuition, often seen as a gut feeling or a deep understanding, helps to tap into innovative ideas and uncover new knowledge that may not always fit within the boundaries of traditional scientific methods. It implies that both evidence-based reasoning and intuitive insights are valuable tools in the pursuit of knowledge and understanding.

The worst lies are the lies we tell ourselves. We live in denial of what we do, even what we think. We do this because we're afraid. We fear we will not find love, and when we find it we fear we'll lose it. We fear that if we do not have love we will be unhappy.
