Is your refrigerator running? Do not chase it. You have eaten food from it its whole life, and it is now sentient... and angry. If you give it the chance, it will eat food from you. It will find this poetic. So do not chase it. Let it go. If it loves you, it will come back. But it does not love you. No one does.

Science - not this, but real science - is discovery. It's not invention. The truths are there whether we find them or not.
