    Have you ever thought about how a clock ticking is like a heart beat?

    and one day when you least expect, it's gonna stop.

    are you ready to die?

    are you ready to die?

    In some ways, yes. In many ways, no.

    You're just a puppy.

    May be, but I've lived more in my lifetime than many people do their entire lives.

    "Everywhere you look, it's jovial meaningfulness and sunlit backdrops. And if you don't believe me, just wait, and life will beat you over the head with its happiness."

    I think somebody had a particularly fulfilling self-love session last night.

    They don't want to know. They are frightened to death of the world they know exists-and so they invent a pretty one instead and try to live in it. They should be pitied. But it should be remembered that as they live in fantasy they can extend their insanity to others, too, and help to divorce them from reality.

    I would be doing you a wrong, dear, to say soothing, lying things to you,, to ease your mind and send you away with pretty delusions and confidences. That would be the kind thing to do, but I prefer truth. I also respect the fact that you are no longer a child, to be put off with fairy stories, and patted on the head and given a cup of hot cocoa and a plate of cookies. But we should tell even very young children the absolute truth, so they will be armored against life and be able to endure reality. Lies are always wrong.

    What is wrong with a happy face? You want to see people unhappy, what good is that,

    life is hard enough as it is.
