Paris se révèle doucement à qui veut bien la regarder, l'écouter, la ressentir, et l'aimer... et toi tu as le coeur, le regard, et l'âme d'une parisienne, donc Paris t'aimera!

		<description>All of Ali's arguments here would make sense only if CH's ultimate goal throughout his life was to live as long as possible. It is obvious that this was not the case. Some people consider living fully and intensely far more valuable than living healthily. Essentially, for CH that meant a combination of his three passions - writing and speaking polemically, smoking, drinking: eliminate any one of these and life becomes incomplete, eliminate two and life is not worth living; eliminating three would equal death. This is a bit of oversimplification of course but not by much. Passions are not like prescription medications for which brand name products can be substituted by generic ones (and as we all know even those do not always turn out to be adequate replacements). We can't choose our passions the way we do laundry detergents in a supermarket. No, such passions are a part of a person's DNA - a part of who we are.
There are several fallacies in Ali's latest comments and i don't have enough time and, frankly, interest to analyze every one of them. But most of my objections would come down to two main errors in Ali's approach: applying one person's values to another's life and presuming to know a very intelligent person better than that person knows himself.
Nice quote, Entropy. As for me, i am taking off on vacation away from civilization now - see you next year sometime.</description>

		<description>People say that what we're all seeking is a meaning for life. I don't think that's what we're really seeking. 

I think what we're seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonance within our own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive. 

That's what it's all finally about.
