“If there are any righteous, then they suffer first for the
sins of the age, and if not, then those children for whose sake the world is
preserved suffer first, and God takes them from the world although there is no
sin in them.” -Chaim Potok, The Book of Lights
We learn as we age that we know little. As we age even more, we know less. Is it with age we become less rooted in the
world and grow dumber? Or simply less naïve?
