does the moon have a purpose? she inquired of Prince Charming

"Albert Camus wrote that the only serious question is whether to kill yourself or not

Tom Robbins wrote that the only serious question is whether time has a beginning and end.

Camus clearly got up on the wrong side of bed, and Robbins must have forgotten to set the alarm.

Ther is only on serious question. And that is:

Who knows how to make love stay?

Answer me that and I will tell you whether or not to kill yourself.

Answer me that and I will ease your mind about the beginning and the end of time.

Answer me that and I will reveal to you the purpose of the moon."

-Tom Robbins, Still Life With Woodpecker
