The world in its bottomless groundlessness, devoid of any meaning, will become unbearable to man. For some time, despite the consciousness of utter meaninglessness, the exploration of the limitless will continue, feeding on the aspiration for truth preserved from past centuries, but this transitional period will not be able to last long. When godlessness becomes a reality, all interest in the truth will die out. Disappointment and lack of a fulcrum will push more and more towards nihilism. For the longest time, perhaps, a purely technical interest in the existent will remain, but it will also run out — it will not stand on its own.

— Karl Jaspers
