Ponderings of the Dark and Weary Mind

When hope is gone there is nothing. How can one hold a hope for something better when "better" is meaningless? In a meaningless world where all goals amount to nothing but wind there can be no hope. There is nothing to hope for.

Einstein held that human curiosity is infinite. It has also been supposed that human stupidity is infinite. The latter statement seems false to me. While it appears that curiosity may be limitless, stupidity has some clear bounds and so must be finite. Extreme cases of stupidity tend to result either in death or descent to high public office, and in either case there is a limit to the depths which may be sunk to. In the former case, 6' and in the latter, the presidency.   ¶ 9:15 AM
