4. If everything was possible...
...then the impossible would be possible, which means it would be impossible to be impossible, which is impossible if everything is possible, so everything can not be possible. :smoke:

9. Along a similar vein, it is not possible for nothing to be possible...
because then it would be possible for nothing to be possible, by dint of its being, thus something IS possible. Reductio ad absurdum

Don't live life by limitations.

7. I will never say the word procrastinate again...
I'll never see myself in the mirror with my eyes closed.

10. As a computer scientist
I can tell you several things that aren't possible.

And a lot of things that we have a pretty good feeling aren't possible, but we haven't proven it yet.

But maybe those things are only in this universe/dimension.
