I look at the world and I see absurdity all around me. People do strange things constantly, to the point that, for the most part, we manage not to see it.

About This Quote

The world is absurd. We keep doing the same old, same old things, yet we fail to see it. We keep expecting different results, but we make the mistake of thinking that if everyone behaved like us, things would be better. But they won’t be. If everyone did the same thing, the world would become fantastically boring.
