+"What surprises you most about mankind?"
+
+God answered:
+
+"That they get bored of being children, are in a rush to grow up, and then long
+to be children again. That they lose their health to make money and then lose
+their money to restore their health. That by thinking anxiously about the
+future, they forget the present, such that they live neither for the present
+nor the future. That they live as if they will never die, and they die as if
+they had never lived."
