“I think we should read books, and tell children stories, and take
them to the theatre, and learn poems, and play music, as if it
would make a difference. I think that while believing that the
school of morals is probably doomed, we should act as if it were
not. We should act as if the universe were listening to us and
responding; we should act as if life were going to win. We should
act as if we were celebrating a wedding: we should act as if we
were attending the marriage of responsibility and delight."
