"Basically, being alive means keeping yourself ready for the sky to fall in on you at any time. If you start from the assumption that existence is only an ordeal, a test we have to pass, then youâ€™re equipped to deal with its sorrows and its surprises. If you persist in expecting it to give you something it canâ€™t give, that just proves that you havenâ€™t understood anything. Take things as they come; donâ€™t turn them into a drama. Youâ€™re not piloting the ship, youâ€™re following the course of your destiny."

“The great subversive works of children's literature suggest that there are other views of human life besides those of the shopping mall and the corporation. They mock current assumptions and express the imaginative, unconventional, noncommercial view of the world in its simplest and purest form. They appeal to the imaginative, questioning, rebellious child within all of us, renew our instinctive energy, and act as a force for change. This is why such literature is worthy of our attention and will endure long after more conventional tales have been forgotten.”
“In a Jewish theological seminar there was an hours-long discussion about proofs of the existence of God. After some hours, one rabbi got up and said, "God is so great, he does not even need to exist."”
