"According to our social science, we can be or become wise in all matters
of secondary importance, but we have to be resigned to utter ignorance
in the most important respect: we cannot have any knowledge regarding
the ultimate principles of our choices, i.e. regarding their soundness
or unsoundness... We are then in the position of beings who are sane and
sober when engaged in trivial business and who gamble like madmen when
confronted with serious issues."
