About This Quote
Heaven is an idea constructed by man to help him cope with the fact that life on earth is both brutally short and, paradoxically, far too long. In other words, heaven is a very real place, and you can get there any time you want to. It is not a state of perfect happiness nor eternal bliss. Rather, it is a very real place where there are no more tears or pain and everyone is contented.
