“We are born to talk to other people, ... we are born to be sociable and to sit together with others in the shade of the acacia tree and talk about things that happened the day before. We were not born to sit in kitchens by ourselves, with nobody to chat to." Mma Ramotswe”
“We are constantly being surprised that people did things well before we were born.”
“We were born to be great; we were born to be loved; we were born to be eternal.”
“Not to know what happened before we were born is to remain perpetually a child.”
“Some of us hover when we weep for the other who wasdying since the day they were born.”
“What does it mean to be born? After we die, will it be the same thing as it was before we were born? Or a different kind of nothingness? Because there might be knowledge then. Memory.”
