    I have thought of relocating, somewhere where I’d be more appreciated. California, perhaps. I could teach earthquake preparedness.

    If we are ready to tolerate everything as understood, there is nothing left to explain; while if we sourly refuse to take anything, even tentatively, as clear, no explanation can be given. What intrigues us as a problem, and what will satisfy us as a solution, will depend upon the line we draw between what is already clear and what needs to be clarified.
    —Nelson Goodman (b. 1906)
