(sighing) This poem offers a tedious litany of uncertainties. |
Lex: |
Well, only fanatics are free of doubts. It's healthy to question all beliefs. |
Linda: |
(countering half-in-jest) Yet isn't endless questioning immobilizing? Those who question over and over never commit to action. Such non-commitment is a sign of cowardice!
|
Lex: |
(nodding) Balance is what's needed. Certainly questioning nothing is foolish. Yet questioning everything endlessly is equally absurd.

Ron: |
(frowning) Quack! Quack! Quack! You folks are like ducks, waddling back and forth over small bread crumbs. Meta-analysis is so tedious! That's why we should open up a bottle of wine and ruminate over various interpretations of the vine.
Philosophy amounts to intellectual masturbation – it's an utter waste of time! |
