"Ci fosse fuori di noi, per voi e per me, ci fosse una signora probabilità mia e una signora probabilità vostra, dico per se stesse, e uguali, immutabili. Non c’è. C’è in me e per me una probabilità mia: quella che io sento, e una probabilità vostra in voi: quella che voi sentite; le quali non saranno mai le stesse, né per voi né per me”.
B. de Finetti paraphrasing Pirandello  words from “Uno, Nessuno e Centomila” (1926). Notice that  “realtà” is replaced by “probabilità” and “mi do” by “sento”.
