“Man: What surprises you most about humankind?

God: That they get bored with childhood, rush to grow up and then long to be children again. That they lose their health to make money, and then lose their money to restore their health. That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live in neither the present nor the future. That they will live as if they will never die, and die as though they had never lived.”
