Quote
Eternity and infinity
It doesn’t matter whether this world is beautiful or not, one way or another,
We come to it only on a brief visit.
However, in comparison, what is it brief with? With eternity?
The concept of infinity brought metaphysics to confusion ...
um, whole eternity. Those who do not share metaphysical concepts,
The shirt in front of him is much less.
Thomas Katkart and Dan Klein

After all, since this book was in your hands, it means that you guess how, in your opinion, a person differs from other mammals? The desire to find meaning in everything, and then laugh at the results. Surely this book will become very popular in Russia, since philosophizing and inventing jokes is our favorite pastime.
