About This Quote
One of the most cherished ideas about the universe is that it is a place of unchanging laws, fixed constants and eternal truths. This idea might have been true in the past, but modern science teaches us that the universe is a place of endless change and that there are no absolute truths. The universe has no feelings or emotions or anything that can be identified with human emotions or feelings. There’s nothing to make you sad if one of your friends dies.
There’s nothing to make you happy if your team wins. And there’s nothing to make you scared if something big happens. The universe doesn’t shed tears, not because it doesn’t have them, but because they aren’t real.
