“The claim "matter does not exist" sounds like madness, was laughed at for a century, and has never been cleanly refuted — Hume called Berkeley's arguments the best lessons of skepticism ever written.”

“The physical world is not made of mind-independent matter; it is made of perceptions and the minds that have them — to be is to be perceived — and it stays real and stable because God never stops perceiving it.”
