...there's no reason why scholarship can't be as seriously playful as bubble-blowing.
The overriding reason why we should take other people's cultures seriously is because God has taken ours seriously.
It's not that I'm a serious person; I'm playful and stuff like that, but I take characters very seriously and the work very seriously.
On the one hand you take life too seriously, and on the other, you do not take playful existence seriously enough.
There is no good reason why we should fear the future, but there is every reason why we should face it seriously, neither hiding from ourselves the gravity of the problems before us nor fearing to approach these problems with the unbending, unflinching purpose to solve them aright.
As scientists, we track down all promising leads, and there's reason to suspect that our universe may be one of many - a single bubble in a huge bubble bath of other universes.

I have faith in the Torah. I am not afraid of truth.

We can talk about republican or democratic approaches to the economy, but until you fix the student loan bubble - and that's where the real bubble is - and the tuition bubble, we don't have a chance. All this other stuff is shuffling deck-chairs on the Titanic.
