How now, wit! Whither wander you?
— William Shakespeare
Let us follow the truth whither so ever it leads.
— Socrates
Whence came I, whither go I? Science cannot tell us a word about why music delights us, of why and how an old song can move us to tears. Science is reticent too when it is a question of the great Unity — the One of Parmenides — of which we all somehow form part, to which we belong. The most popular name for it in our time is God — with a capital ‘G’. Whence come I and whither go I? That is the great unfathomable question, the same for every one of us. Science has no answer to it.
— Erwin Schrödinger
