From an early Sanskrit hymn: Who knows for certain? Who shall here declare it: whence was it born? whence came creation? The gods are later than this world’s formation. Who then can know the origins of the world? None knows whence creation arose, or whether he has or has not made it, he who surveys it from the lofty skies. Only he knows. Or perhaps he knows not.

From an interview with Carrie about her "Any...
Q: Which of your ex’s were funnier in private, Dan Aykroyd or Paul Simon?
A: Well, I had a much more intense relationship with Paul obviously. Paul could be hilarious and that was great because it was more unexpected. Danny of course was funny.
