00:05And for the fool, even playthings become very serious.
00:12Have you not seen kids, adolescents getting into a brawl over a game of soccer?
00:20That's how the worldly mind is.
00:22For him, everything is important. Everything has a meaning.
00:26Everything is to be taken seriously.
00:29Because something big is always at stake for the fool.
