Tuesday, April 1: April Fools’ Day
“... fools live longer than the wise, unless someone kills them ... for ... fools do not dissemble their passions. If they are merry they laugh; but those who deem themselves wise hide their defects with so much care that their hearts are all poisoned with them.”

Sunday, April 20: Passover
This is the annual Jewish festival that commemorates the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt. The name is derived from God’s passing over the houses of the Israelites when he killed the firstborn of the Egyptians (Exodus 13). It is also known as Pesach.
