Now I existed solely thanks to the quantum paradox, my brain a collection of qubits in quantum superposition, encoding truths and memories, imagination and irrationality in opposing, contradictory states that existed and didn't exist, all at the same time.

About This Quote

The quantum paradox is a theory that explains how the brain works. It states that our brains are made of neurons that are connected together. These neurons are able to transmit information from one part of the brain to another. If the information is sent correctly, it will make its way to the right place.

However, if the information is sent incorrectly, it will be sent to the wrong place. This means that there is a chance for all of these bits of information to be received at the same time, which is called superposition. It also means that our brains can store two or more contradictory truths or memories at the same time without any contradiction.

For example, my mind might always remember that I am happy and it can't forget this fact at once. Therefore, I would be happy all the time regardless of what was happening.
