About This Quote

The real truths we are interested in are those about ourselves. Today, you can find out anything you want to know, so long as it doesn’t concern you. But they won’t tell you the truth when it comes to yourself. They will tell you what you want to hear.

That is why the most important thing they are interested in are the secrets of the stars, that is, how many stars there are in the universe or where they came from. The biggest stars of all are found within us.
