“The meaning of life is that it stops.”

This is the punchline of a cartoon in the London Guardian on 9 February 2013 entitled “Baking with Kafka. This week: lemon drizzle cake”. No, don’t ask. We haven’t got a clue.

Reminds us of a story about the philosopher who wrote a book called “The Secret of Hegel” about the notoriously hermetic German sage. A critic reviewing it said that the secret had been well kept.
