“The mind can ask all the questions on the meaning of life. But it cannot answer one of them, for the answers are beyond the mind.”

“For an answer which cannot be expressed the question too cannot be expressed.The riddle does not exist.If a question can be put at all, then it can also be answered.”

“We decided that it was no good asking what is the meaning of life, because life isn't an answer, life is the question, and you, yourself, are the answer.”

“...the question as to the nature of force will not have been answered; but our minds, no longer vexed, will cease to ask illegitimate questions.”

“Adults discourage children from asking philosophical questions, first by being patronizing to them and then by directing their inquiring minds towards more "useful" questions. Most adults aren't themselves interested in philosophical questions. They may be threatened by some of them. Moreover, it doesn't occur to most adults that there are questions that a child can ask that they can't provide a definitive answer to and that aren't answered in a standard dictionary or encyclopedia either.”

“The uncreative mind can spot wrong answers, but it takes a very creative mind to spot wrong questions.”
