Quote from Dragonfiremule
I want to understand everything. I guess this is almost the same as wanting to know everything, but you can know something without understand it - I know 2 + 2 = 4, but I don't know why. I want to understand people, functions, the universe, everything. Alas, it's impossible... but I can want it.
That's what I meant. Yes it's impossible and impractical, but it's a dream come true. It may go wrong, like the King Midas, but then, if I can get anything I want, then why won't I ask for some control over it too?
I want to know everything, and I wnat the power to be able to do something about the wrong things in the world, on a scale larger than what I can do right now.
