Book in Minutes: Sophie's World

Wisest is she who knows she does not know. It's not a silly question if you can't answer it. The question of whether a thing is right or wrong, good or bad, must always be considered in relation to a persons needs. ... the only thing we require to be good philosophers is the faculty of wonder... The stupidest thing she knew was for people to act like they knew all about the things they knew absolutely nothing about. We are the living planet, Sophie! We are the great vessel sailing around a burning sun in the universe. But each and every one of us is also a ship sailing through life with a cargo of genes. When we have carried this cargo safely to the next harbor-we have not lived in vain.
