A Failure Doesn't Mean You Are Unworthy,

Science Has Revealed A Universe That Is Vast, Ancient, Violent, Strange, And Beautiful, A Universe Of Almost Infinite Variety And Possibility One In Which Time Can End In A Black Hole, And Conscious Beings Can Evolve From A Soup Of Minerals.

We Believe That When We Choose Anything, Judge A Stranger And Even Fall In Love, We Understand The Principal Factors That Influenced Us. Very Often Nothing Could Be Further From The Truth. As A Result, Many Of Our Most Basic Assumptions About Ourselves, And Society, Are False.
