Reverse living

Astăzi am terminat de citit ”A whack on the side of the head” (How to unlock your mind for Innovation) de Roger von Oech.
Iar mai jos am transcris (și modificat un pic) un paragraf care mi-a plăcut. Nu îi aparține autorului cărții, l-a preluat și el dintr-o sursă nespecificată.

"I think that the life cycle should be all backwards.

You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live twenty years in an old age home. You get kicked out when you're too young.
You get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement.
You go to college: you drink alcohol, you party, until you're ready for high school. You go to high school, then you go to grade school.
You become a little kid, you play, you have no responsibilities.
You become a little baby, you go back into a womb, you spend your last nine months floating.
And you finish off as a gleam in somebody's eye."

Books have to be heavy, because the whole world is inside them. ~Cornelia Funke~
