The chess-board is the world;
the pieces are the phenomena
of the universe;
the rules of the game are what we call
the laws of Nature.

The player on the other side
is hidden from us.
We know that his play is always fair,
and patient.

But also we know, to our cost,
that he never overlooks a mistake,
or makes the smallest allowance for ignorance.


Thomas Henry Huxley

Bem, isso não sei, mas gosto da metáfora.
