Mary Doria Russell Quote

It is the human condition to ask questions like Anne’s last night and to receive no plain answers, he said. Perhaps this is because we can’t understand the answers, because we are incapable of knowing God’s ways and God’s thoughts. We are, after all, only very clever tailless primates, doing the best we can, but limited. Perhaps we must all own up to being agnostic, unable to know the unknowable.
