"宇宙には目的があるかもしれませんが、もしそうだとしても、その目的が私たちのものと似ているということを示唆するものは何もありません。"
— Bertrand Russell
Simplified Meaning:
This quote is saying that the universe might have its own plan or reason for existing. However, there is no evidence to show that this plan is similar to the goals or purposes that humans have. Imagine a gardener planting a tree. The gardener has a specific reason for planting it, perhaps for fruit or shade. But the insects living on that tree have their own purposes, like finding food or shelter, which are very different from the gardener's plans. In the same way, whatever purpose the universe has might be very different from what we humans consider important. This means that while we can have our own goals and dreams, we shouldn't assume that they align with the greater plan of the universe. Instead, we should focus on living our lives meaningfully, without needing to find a cosmic reason for everything we do.
