What’s the time, please?
I don’t know, it changes all the time!

If you want to change, you have to change twice. You not only need to change the reality of your situation, you also need to change your perception of this reality.

we today have situations that are equally inexplicable, but in different ways. The taps for water and for gas open in different directions. The keyboards on a calculator and a telephone are different—the line with 123 is the bottom line on a calculator, but it’s the top line on a telephone.

In the country I had a dog, which used to take a sly pleasure in jumping over the garden fence and escaping into the neighboring fields. One day I decided to remove the ugly wire netting which no longer served any useful purpose. Imagine my surprise the next day when I saw my dog jumping up at the exact point where the fence had been, with the same sly pleasure (possibly to remind me that the French words for dog and cynicism come from the same root)? Before you laugh at him, think a moment! Maybe he’s laughing at us, incapable of getting out of the boxes that we make for ourselves, stuck in buildings which no longer exist, squatting inside fences which disappeared long ago, and shut inside imaginary walls.
