“The more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it also seems pointless.” — Steven Weinberg in "The First Three Minutes" (1977) But in the same book, Weinberg wrote “The effort to understand the universe is one of the very few things that lifts human life a little above the level of farce, and gives it some of the grace of tragedy.”
