"The Christmas Mystery" / Jostein Gaarder

"There are exactly two ways of becoming wise. One way is to travel out into the world and to see as much as possible of God's creation. The other is to put down roots in one spot and study everything that happens there in as much detail as you can. The problem is that it's totally impossible to do both at the same time."

"The more we give away, the richer we become. And the more we keep for ourselves, the poorer we become. That's the mystery of generosity, neither more nor less. But it's the mystery of poverty, too."

"I think laughter is like the wildflower. Both are a part of the glory of heaven that has strayed down to earth. But it's very easy for that kind of thing to spill over."

"The more we understand, the more we see around us. And the more we see around, the more we understand. So there will always be something new to discover if we only have eyes and ears open to the remarkable world we live in."
