Reminds me of a joke I read once:
At an interwiev a matematician, an engineer and an economist were asked what 2+2 was. The matematician answered: "Four. It's always four." The engineer responded: "Four. More or less. +/- 2%.". When the question was asked by the economist, he looked around the room, shut the blinds and whispered: "What do you want it to be?".
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
