“Love is an illusion, a misunderstanding.
Mutual love is a mutual misunderstanding of being mutually loved.
And engagement is a vow to not wake up for your whole life from that misunderstanding.”

“Long, long ago in the days when gods appeared to men...
Bread fell down from heaven.
Some lamented loudly that the bread was not meat.
Meat fell down from heaven.
Some lamented loudly that they preferred the bread.
God came down from heaven.
He will make water fall down for a time, until everyone knows what will make them happy.
Rain fell down from heaven.
Everyone lamented loudly that their clothing became wet.
Flames fell from heaven.
Everyone lamented loudly that their houses had been burned.
God came down from heaven.
He will make nothing fall from heaven, until everyone knows what will make them happy.
Nothing fell down from heaven.
Some lamented loudly that God had forsaken them.
All manner of things fell down from heaven.
Some lamented loudly that God should be more selective in what he sent.
Boulders rained down from heaven.
Now the lamentations finally ceased.
Rain fell down from heaven.
passing travelers expressed their gratitude.
"God, we thank thee for the unexpected weather.
Now we can carry on our long journey and enjoy the break from the monotony."
God saw them off without a word.
As it should be. Gods and dice are best when silent.”
