Quotations - Play and Learn

"I don't believe in an afterlife, although I am bringing a change of underwear"  [Woody Allen]

I discovered this quotation last week: I was at the doctor's surgery, and in the waiting room I read a magazine in which one of the articles was about Woody Allen.

I like this quotation because I find it very funny.
It also shows that the author isn't absolutely sure of his belief.

However it doesn't influence me because I have the certainty of an afterlife.
I'm sure of my assertion.

Vocabulary/Explanations
