A little boy asks a driver :
- Could you give me a ride, please? I'm late for school.
- But I'm heading in the opposite direction, son.
- Even better!
A man left his cat with his brother while he went on vacation for a week. When he came back, the man called his brother to see when he could pick the cat up. The brother hesitated, then said, `I`m so sorry, but while you were away, the cat died.`
The man was very upset and yelled, `You know, you could have broken the news to me better than that. When I called today, you could have said he was on the roof and wouldn`t come down. Then when I called the next day, you could have said that he had fallen off and the vet was working on patching him up. Then when I called the third day, you could have said he had passed away.`
The brother thought about it and apologized.
`So how`s Mom?` asked the man.
`She`s on the roof and won`t come down.`
Little Nancy was in the garden filling in a hole when her neighbor peered over the fence. Interested in what the little girl was up to, he politely asked, `What are you up to there, Nancy?`
`My goldfish died,` replied Nancy tearfully, without looking up, `and I`ve just buried him.`
The neighbor was concerned, `That`s an awfully big hole for a goldfish, isn`t it?`
Nancy patted down the last heap of earth and then replied, `That`s because he`s inside your stupid cat.`

“I may be on the side of the angels but don’t think for one second that I am one of them.”
“The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existence. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery each day."
