    It is easier to develop fiction than to practice strict scientific methodology.

    I like the thought, but I am not clear on how to "develop" fiction.  Do you mean, just live in a fantasy?  I think that is what you meant.  On that I agree.  We all do it.  No matter how stringent we are, it seems we always can fool ourselves over the most menial things as well as the obvious.  

    What a piece of work is man.

    I think only about 10% of my thinking is reality but that is enough. Fiction is just  always a part of my mind, does not actually have to be developed very much. This post was edited by Kittigate at August 20, 2019 10:35 PM MDT

    He could have meant that if you are waiting for a bus and expecting it to arrive on schedule then you are an idiot.
