"Peut-être que je suis vieux et fatigué, mais je pense toujours que les chances de découvrir ce qui se passe réellement sont tellement ridiculement minces que la seule chose à faire est de suivre les instructions des professionnels à travers les générations"

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes it feels like understanding what's really happening in the world is nearly impossible. Imagine trying to fix a very complicated machine without knowing how it works. This can make you feel exhausted and hopeless. In such cases, it's wise to rely on the advice of experts who have more knowledge and experience. For example, when dealing with a medical issue, trusting a doctor's guidance is often better than trying to figure it all out by yourself. Similarly, in life, it's best to follow proven advice to avoid causing harm and make better decisions. This approach helps us manage situations better, even when things seem too difficult to understand.
