FORTY TWO, for heaven's sake.

What's more important, what is the question?

And that, of course, is WHAT IS SIX TIMES EIGHT?

If you understand that, you understand why the universe is the way it is.

A difficult choice, but I'm picking this as the best answer as it mentions Douglas and flirts with danger by stating a more exact version of the question.

Answer is Sacrifice. Learn to sacrifice what you got if you feel the other person needs it the most. That's it.

The answer to the question of what is the meaning of life... is many things to many people. But if you're honest with yourself and the universe you'll be able to reach down, deep within yourself and grasp the answer. You will be more successful with this if you are still, quiet, and in a state of utter sincerity.

I was going to post the answer "42" to this question when I noticed that there was 42 answers. Mine will be the 43rd.

To question is to be human whether or not we can find the right answer. We can spend our entire life seeking out the impossible answer to the questions of life.

One important thing is to recognize the question is what makes us human. So the real answer is to genuinely attempt to find your own answer to this question and avoid being arrogant and think you are the only one doing this.
Recognize the validity of other people answers.

Well first figure out what the ultimate question is. I would say the ultimate question of the life and of the universe is "How can I find happiness?" Of course the ultimate question is, "Is there anything life on this world?" and "Where's the other life in this universe."

There are so many questions. Frankly many answers we can only speculate on.

But in terms of finding happiness the answer varies from person to person. For many it's family and friends. For me it's finding passion and inspiration in my field of study: Film

The Truth. And when you come to realize it, and this is only a personal experience, you realize that there is only One Truth, which has to permeate everything in a fractal way, like a tree. You will realize that the Truth is not an abstract concept, that It's alive and gives life to eferything and every tree that is not rooted in Truth is not true and hence it does not exist. We live in this universe to find the Truth. There is only one Truth, but there is an infinity of ways of finding it and that's what makes us unique and the Truth infinite in nature.
