Having an answer is a comfort. It's when you start asking questions and those questions pull threads in the larger fabric, you're forced to wonder what you're left with. And for people of any age, it's scary to think the fabric of the universe - or the universe as you've always believed it existed - can just unwind, you know? Robin Epstein
About This Quote

This quote is perfect for people who struggle with anxiety. The fear of not having an answer can drive people to become obsessed with knowing the answer. Anxiety is the fear of uncertainty. The fear of not knowing what will happen next is paralyzing.

But it doesn't have to be this way. This quote is a reminder that the best thing to do when you don't know something is to keep asking questions instead of taking the easy way out and assuming you know everything there is to know.
