if i ever have children, i will not read them fairy tales with happy endings. i will read them stories with impossible dilemmas. cliff-hangers that leave them thinking, not smiling. books with covers that will never close. I will tell them there is a god but who knows if he's good or bad or what he wants from us? because i don't know either. life is a riddle that takes a hundred years to solve. and not even the smartest person in the world knows for sure what the meaning of life is. God can do whatever he wants whenever he wants so just keep on living. And if they are upset, i will tell them:
Why should you be happy? That is not your task in life. Who said you were put on earth to be happy?
- Federico Fellini 8 1/2
