laughing at truth.

Perhaps the mission of those who love mankind is to make people laugh at the truth, to make truth laugh, because the only truth lies in learning to free ourselves from insane passion for the truth.

- Umberto Eco

Hey i like that. i don't exactly know what it means but i like it. and perhaps that's the reason why i like books by people like kurt vonnegut and mark twain so much. hell i even like chris rock's stand up comedy. and all those fantastic coen brother' movies. they all have one thing in common. all these people make us laugh at the truth...whatever the hell truth means.
