As an undergrad I had an argument with my Theory professor on if #s could ever be truly random. I believed they couldn't, they could just be #s we don't know in advance, but that everything was actually predetermined. His response, "If needed, we could get them at a quantum level."

I didn't have the Physics knowledge at the time to realize he was right.
