We are all prisoners but some of us are in cells with windows and some without.

Yeah, kinda reminds me of Plato and his allegory of the cave - you should really read some of Plato's work, it really reaffirms your faith even though the was himself an atheist.

Hmm I have read that cave theory briefly... I dun really believe though that ignorance is bliss... I mean yes during the journey from the 'not knowing' to the 'knowing' there comes a point when u dread realization coz life without it seems happier but u just go on to realize that knowledge is better!Knowledge of the self n yr past n present that is.
Waisay where can I read his theory again?? I mean koi site addy hai?
