Nonsense Quotations

I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.
Theodor Geisel

Albert Einstein

A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men.
Roald Dahl

Ray Bradbury

It is nonsense to say that Germans are unable to change.
Angela Merkel
