| The End of a Story
|
| "The last car drove away. It began to rain.
And so our hero's life ended as it had begun... a disaster.
'I never got any breaks' he had always complained.
He wanted to be rich. He died poor. He wanted friends. He died friendless. He wanted to be loved. He died unloved. He wanted laughter. He found only tears. He wanted applause. He received boos. he wanted fame. He found only obscurity. He wanted answers. He found only questions.
*I'm having a hard time ending this...*"
'Peanuts' Good ol' Charlie Brown , by Schultz.

You should read something happier. Feynman, for instance.

Feynman is great, JJ, but sometimes you need to read Cioran ;-)

Au contraire, my friend, Cioran is always great for depression. A hour reading Cioran neve fails to make me happy.

That reminds me a Garfield's comic strip: "Surround yourself with people fatter than you and you'll feel less fat" xD

Actually, it's not that. He just makes everything sound so terrible that why bother being depressed?

Feynmann, JJ?
He was a great physicist who had very fine teachers...
Instead, I have been on the shoulder of dwarves...
