I prefer not to fall in the well while looking at the stars.

some institutions offer up to a billion dollars for the solving of certain mysteries

not to mention bragging rights, awards, etc

this is more about interests. i'm not interested in pony riding, so here's what i do - get the fuck out

i try not to get to indepth with this sort of stuff either, but philosophy is great form of skepticism

skepticism is what happens when things get too comfortable
