...,' said the king. The prince was full of sadness. He said, 'I will kill myself. If there is no truth beyond magic, then what is the point of going on living?

He remembered the beautiful but unreal islands and the unreal but beautiful...
... nobody will ever know what is happening inside you. But you will almost follow the rat - then what is the point of doing anything else? You will kill yourself.

... at the shoemaker's door. It was locked. The neighbor said, "He is dead. Your potato pancakes killed him."

You can change surfaces, you can paint faces, but the inner type remains the same. Hence the East has not troubled itself with...

... and the pen is not functioning well, smoothly, you get angry. You feel hurt, as if the pen is doing it knowingly, as if there is someone in the boat. You even feel somebody is there in the pen trying to disturb you. And this is not only the logic of small children, this is your logic also. If a child bumps into a table, he will hit it just to right the wrong, and he will always be an enemy of that...
... I am dead. So he pretended. He stopped his breathing because you cannot rob or kill a dead man. But the people had seen the man jump so they became very worried. What was he doing They gathered around, looked in the grave, and they said: What is the idea? What are you doing? Why are you here? Mulla opened his eyes, looked at them, then became certain that there was no danger. He laughed, and said...

... they have done, the most difficult thing - history will remember them. History always remembers foolish people, because fools make history and fools write it!

If you just brush your teeth in the morning how can you make history? And EASY IS...
