There are five billion people living on this planet. But you fall in love with one particular person, and you won't swap her for any other.

We are thrown together with a sprinkling of stardust.

What Plato was really asking was perhaps why a horse was a horse, and not, for example, a cross between a horse and a pig.

But all fairytales have rules, and perhaps it’s their rules that actually distinguish one fairytale from the other. These rules never need to be understood. They only need to be followed. If not, what they promise won’t come true.

It's not a silly question if you can't answer it.
