Food for thought: the title is a line from Jack Kerouac's "Dharma Bums". Reading this in my hotel room earlier made me consider the validity of this statement.
Valid: considering the mantra of the book, there really is nothing to know - nothing really exists, you make it exist. Therefore, everyone knows everything in from their perspective because they make everything.
Invalid: the absolute idea of everything strays from kerouac's thesis - of course one person can't know everything let alone everyone knowing everything.
Consider how you precieve others... More than likely it's the latter case and you feel that it is prudent and efficient to have this mindset.
Now consider how life would be if everyone followed Kerouac's mantra.
