It was towards the end of the 17th century, the philosopher Leibniz who asked it, a very smart guy, Leibniz, who invented the calculus independently of Isaac Newton, at about the same time, but for Leibniz, who asked why is there something rather than nothing, this was not a great mystery.
Bilo je to krajem 17. stoljeća, kada je filozof Leibniz pitao, jako pametan čovjek, Leibniz, koji je izumio kalkulus neovisno o Isaacu Newtonu u otprilike isto vrijeme, ali za Leibniza koji je pitao  zašto postoji nešto umjesto ničega, to nije bio velik misterij.
