The Fool leaves the past behind. He carries nothing more than his purity, innocence and trust.
The 'zero' place occupied by the Fool is the numberless number where trust and innocence are the guides, not skepticism and past experience.
"The unobserved state is a fog of probabilities, a window of and for error. The watcher observes, the fog collapses, an event resolves. A theory becomes a fact...
What is the truth? Tell me, if you know and I will not believe you. Things are never what they seem. Clean gloves hide dirty hands and mine are dirtier than most... Without truth, there can be no justice.
Justice will be done!"
- Trevor Goodchild [Peter Chung's Aeon Flux]
