CHIMERA
1. A fire-breathing she-monster in Geek mythology having a lion's head, a goat's body, and a serpent's tail
2. an illusion or fabrication of the mind; esp: an unrealizable dream
Usage in a sentence...
"I will believe that my memory tells me lies, and that none of the things that it reports ever happened. I have no senses. Body, shape, extension, movement, and place are chimeras. So what remains true? Perhaps just the one fact that nothing is certain."
-excerpt from Rene Descartes's "Meditations on First Philosophy"
...I find Philosophy to be completely and utterly STUPID.
Cogito, ergo sum
