    Isn't it strange that evolution would give us a sense of humor?

    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 the things that don't make sense, we couldn't react to a lot of life.”

    “Calvin: Look, a dead bird!
    Hobbes: It must've hit a window.
    Calvin: Isn't it beautiful? It's so delicate. Sighhh... once it's too late, you appreciate what a miracle life is. You realize that nature is ruthless and our existence is very fragile, temporary, and precious. But to go on with your daily affairs, you can't really think about that...which is probably why everyone takes the world for granted and why we act so thoughtlessly. It's very confusing. I suppose it will all make sense when we grow up.
    Hobbes: No doubt.”
