The theory of quantum electrodynamics describes nature as absurd from the point of view of common sense. And it agrees fully with experiment. So I hope you can accept nature as she is — absurd.”
-- Richard Feynman, Nobel laureate physicist
It would probably be more sensible to say that it is we, with our common sense, that are truly absurd, we and our little happy dreams and our deep and self-important expectations of meaningfulness, as though the world and universe revolves around us, when, in fact, we are really more like self-moving rocks or replicating bags of gas that can 'think'.
