Philip K. Dick
“We must content ourselves with the mystery, the absurdity, the contradictions, the hostility, but also the generosity that our environment offers us. It's not much, but it's always better than the deadly, defeatist certainty of the paranoid.”
Philip K. Dick, Philip K. Dick: The Last Interview and Other Conversations

“Failure is the direct result of uncertainty.”
Meir Ezra

Ernest Agyemang Yeboah

“Thinking about sadness and loneliness, and what it means to be sad, how to live with it, walk through it and grow from it. There is a loneliness in sadness that one can find distractions to escape, but at the end of the day, there it is again. So, how to embrace that loneliness, and trust the uncertainty of tomorrow and the next days, weeks, and months? Loneliness seems like a constantly expanding universe and the sadness is like a sheer veil surrounding it. The two work hand in hand, and there is only one way to navigate; go deep into oneself, as no one else has the map. None of this is a terrible thing; sadness adds rich meaningful layers into life, painful as it is, and loneliness is only a state of mind. Profound changes can come from living your sadness, feeling it completely, and housing it in solitude. The day will come when one emerges, brave and beautiful.”
Riitta Klint

E.M. Forster
“With his head on the fender and all his limbs relaxed, he felt almost as safe as he felt once when his mother killed a ghost in the passage by carrying him through it in her arms. There was no ghost now; he was frightened at reality; he was frightened at the splendors and horrors of the world.”
E.M. Forster, The Longest Journey

Jawaharlal Nehru
“How amazing is the spirit of man!...it is impossible to lose hope for him. In the midst of disaster he has not lost his dignity or his faith in the values he cherished. Plaything of nature's mighty forces, less than a speck of dust in this vast universe, he has hurled defiance at the elemental powers, and with his mind, cradle of revolution, sought to master them. Whatever gods there may be, there is something godlike in man, as there is something of the devil in him.
The future is dark, uncertain. But we can see part of the way leading to it and can tread it with firm steps, remembering that nothing that can happen is likely to overcome the spirit of man which has survived many perils. Remembering also that life, for all its ills, has joy and beauty, and we can always wander,if we know how to, in the enchanted woods of nature.”
Jawaharlal Nehru, The Discovery of India

Lyra Brave
“Their path was lost, nowhere to be found,

Preeth Padmanabhan Nambiar
“I am smiling, for my trust for my Lord is above all uncertainties of the universe.”

Mehmet Murat ildan
“Is the road ahead uncertain? Great, be happy! Uncertainty means surprises, and if the path you're walking on isn't one full of surprises, you'll get bored! When you get bored, your life energy goes out! Walk in uncertainty, encounter new things just like an explorer and they will keep you energetic!”
Mehmet Murat ildan

“A deep study in the law of detachment, supposedly there is wisdom in uncertainty. I have yet to find it. Uncertainty to me is filled with terror; all my demons live in the unknown. This is the season I am in because there were times in my life when uncertainty brought me so much joy and freedom. It is a surrendering. A surrendering. Eastern religion tells me to surrender to the unknown. It teaches that I must be willing to step into the unknown. That works when you are willing but what if I’m not. I am not too eager to step into the unknown right now in my life. I want certainty and stability. I’ve never wanted definitiveness more in my life and I believe that is where my troubles come from. It’s a law that by surrendering to the unknown you are surrendering to God.”
Frances Muenzner Titus

“Live in the question...Leave all the answers blank...Let's play with the magic of uncertainty”
Dipin Damodharan

Mehmet Murat ildan
“Do not be afraid when you see uncertainty on your life path, because uncertainty is not an insurmountable wall, but just like a fog that has blocked your way; you can pass through!~”
Mehmet Murat ildan

Mehmet Murat ildan
“Fog means uncertainty, and this is what best defines our existence: Uncertainty! Something may appear in front of you at any moment, something good or bad!”
Mehmet Murat ildan

Lyra Brave
“When I think of tomorrow, and the days after that,
my biggest worry is getting lost and not being able to find my way back.'

At this, the stars smiled, knowing just what to say,
'Getting lost is the first step to finding your way.”
Lyra Brave, Luna Heartstrong & the Spectacular Supernova

Vernon Howard
“To open up to Truth you have to first be so utterly hopeless and to the point you see no good way out of this life. That is where you are pushed to find out for yourself, whether it even exists or not, whether you have a chance, because Truth, Reality, or what some true teachers call God cannot be found in those parts of us that are familiar or known. If you're comfortable with your acquired ideas, your life situation and memories you will never pursue this”
Vernon Howard , Pathways to Perfect Liiving

“In the vast expanse of life, certainty is often an illusion. The uncertainty of life can leave us questioning everything. We grapple with unanswered questions about our destiny and the true nature of those around us. We may never know the true intentions of those around us or the path our fate will take. But I've always held this mantra close: may the best interests prevail, and may the best interests win.”
Carson Anekeya

Megan Howell
“At twenty-three, she knows that people never cease being their parents’ children
even after they’re grown. That’s why
Sarah and her are always saying they want to be rich, hot, childless aunties whom all their nieces look up to. That way they
don’t have to risk the pain that comes with pulling smaller, more vulnerable people
from their insides and into a dying planet.”
Megan Howell, Softie: Stories
