If we do not know that we are dying, we can not taste the taste of being alive, and that is to live without receiving the wonderful surprise of life! In this case, it is impossible to imagine death. The day the doctor informed his grandmother that his illness was incurable, he said something like this: I had not understood until now. What a beautiful life! Isn’t it sad that one has to get sick to understand what a blessing it is to be alive?

Mankind faces a number of difficult questions for which there are no convincing answers. Well, two things can be done: either we can deceive ourselves and the rest of the world and pretend that we know what we need to know, or we can look forward to it forever. Closed important issues and stopped progress. Humanity is divided into two categories in this regard.
People in general are either one hundred percent sure or one hundred percent indifferent … it’s like splitting a card into two pieces. Put the black dots on one side and the red dots on the other. But suddenly a person emerges who is neither a brick nor a heart nor a cross. All he knew was that he knew nothing, and that bothered him. So that made him a philosopher!

The millipede was a professional dancer, and all the animals in the forest enjoyed her dance except the turtle, which she did not like or envy. The turtle wrote a letter to Hazarpa saying that I am one of your fans and I have a question for Mosha.
When you first dance, you pick up the right foot number 43, then you start with the left foot, number 73, or you start with the left foot first, number 123, and then you bring the right foot, number 843, after that. Does he? … Do you know what happened in the end? Never dance a millipede again! … This is the result of the imagination that came to reason.
