...But when it comes to human beings, the only type of cause that matters is final cause, the purpose. What a person had in mind. Once you understand what people really want, you can't hate them anymore. You can fear them, but you can't hate them, because you can always find the same desires in your own heart. I think it's impossible to really understand somebody, what they want, what they believe, and not love them the way they love themselves. Every day all people judge all other people. The question is whether we judge wisely. Free will doesn’t exist. Only the illusion of free will, because the causes of our behavior are so complex that we can’t trace them back. If you’ve got one line of dominoes knocking each other down one by one, then you can always say, Look, this domino fell because that one pushed it.

Knowledge is just opinion that you trust enough to act upon. Sometimes lies are more dependable than the truth
