"But the fetus immersed in amniotic fluid thinks his conception was by chance--he can't make his imagination comprehend the mechanism behind it. And that's because he doesn't know about the world outside. [...] Only after growing and increasing in knowledge yet further does he come to understand with exactness why and how he was conceived and born. As long as we're inside the womb--inside the universe--we can't understand the way it works." #Ring
