the world around keith

I am Keith. Everything around me is the world. It's not just below my feet. I'm talking the whole of existence here. That's the world. It's a lot bigger than me. It's a lot bigger than you and everybody else.

That's why it's around me and not the other way around. So...I'll show you the world around me, how I see it.

Now, my own suspicion is that the universe is not only queerer than we suppose, but queerer than we CAN suppose.

I have read and heard many attempts at a systematic account of it, from materialism and theosophy to the Christian system or that of Kant, and I have always felt that they were much too simple.

I suspect that there are more things in heaven and earth that actually CANNOT be dreamed of by us, in any philosophy. That is the reason why I have no philosophy myself - and that must be my excuse for dreaming.

— John Burden Sanderson Haldane (1892-1964)
