Quote #2

Calvin: Isn't it strange that evolution would give us a sense of humor? When you think about it, it's                  weird that we have a physiological response to absurdity. We laugh at nonsense. We like it.                We think it's funny. Don't you think it's odd that we appreciate absurdity? Why would we                  develop that way? How does it benefit us?
Hobbes: I suppose if we couldn't laugh at things that don't make sense, we couldn't react to a lot of                   life. . .

Quote #9

Calvin: The more you know, the harder it is to take decisive action. Once you become informed, you start seeing the complexities and shades of gray. You realize that nothing is as clear and simple as it appears. Ultimately, knowledge is paralyzing.                                                                                     SOURCE: Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson

Quote #10

Calvin: Graphic violence in the media. Does it glamorize violence? Sure. Does it desensitize us to violence? Of course. Does it help us to tolerate violence? You bet. Does it stunt our fellow beings? Heck yes. Does it cause violence? SOURCE:  Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson.

Quote #32

Calvin: Space travel makes you realize how small we really are. When you see Earth as a tiny blue speck in the infinite reaches of space, you have to wonder about the mysteries of creation. Surely we're all part of some great design, no more or less important than anything else in the universe. Surely everything fits together has a purpose, a reason for being. Doesn't it make you wonder? SOURCE: Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson
