Maturity, one discovers, has everything to do with the acceptance of “not knowing”. – Mark Danielewski, {color:blue}House of Leaves, pg 34.
Q: But what benefit does one gain from this acceptance of “not knowing”?
A: None, really, except for the ability to focus on the known and the knowable, ie, the practical, the mundane.
Q: The ability to focus on the mundane = maturity, then?
A: Perhaps.
