Your theory is crazy, but it's not crazy enough to be true.

I go into the Upanishads to ask questions.

We are all agreed that your theory is crazy. The question which divides us is whether it is crazy enough to have a chance of being correct. My own feeling is that it is not crazy enough.

There are trivial truths and the great truths. The opposite of a trivial truth is plainly false. The opposite of a great truth is also true.

The old saying of the two kinds of truth. To the one kind belongs statements so simple and clear that the opposite assertion obviously could not be defended. The other kind, the so-called 'deep truths', are statements in which the opposite also contains deep truth.

There is no hope for any speculation that does not look absurd at first glance.

How wonderful that we have met with a paradox. Now we have some hope of making progress.
