Summary

This quote highlights the paradoxical relationship between unpredictability and our reliance on predictions. As the world becomes more chaotic and uncertain, our instinct is to seek stability and control by attempting to predict and understand future outcomes. This reliance on predictions serves as a coping mechanism, providing us with a sense of structure and direction amidst the unpredictability. In essence, the quote suggests that our need for predictions increases in proportion to the complexity and uncertainty of the world around us.
