Reading Seinfeld and Philosophy, I came across the following quote from the 19th century existentialist philosopher Soren Kierkegaard:
"one should in spite of mature years, be able to prove the truth of the proverb that children are pleased with a rattle and tickled with a straw."
Oh, the days when a simple rattle mollified the spirit!
