Nothing Under the Sun Nor Moon

There is nothing under the sun nor under the moon, no entity of intellect, that does not have to believe something about itself, something about its purpose, the reason for its suffering, it's destiny.

Anne Rice in “The Wolves of Midwinter”

I think that if a being has consciousness and intellect, then that being has to wonder about its own existence. I feel like this is just a normal part of being alive.
