The Emptiness of an Unexamined Life Voltaire said doubt is not a pleasant state, but certainty is a ridiculous one. Voltaire was criticizing the person who refuses to submit to critical analysis. Although I am certain I write with a pen, I have no objection to anyone who wishes to examine whether it really is a pen because I am certain of the fact. However, there are certainties we refuse to examine. We are defensive and fear that analysis will prove our belief to be untrue. The active addict refuses to submit to evaluation. He is certain he is not addicted. It is this kind of certainty that is indeed ridiculous.
