“I remember that, already a long time ago, when I would hear someone talking or arguing about some kind of nonsense, I would say, “Eh, you really want to go into that nonsense?” And people would be amazed at that and say, “In what way is this nonsense anyway? If this is nonsense, then what isn’t?” And I’d say, “Oh, I don’t know, I don’t know. But some things aren’t.”
