饼干怪物是无政府主义的、动态的，并且被一个非常具体但又完全随机的目标疯狂地驱动：他想要饼干。他想疯狂地冲过去，把饼干砸进嘴里。他永远不会得到足够的饼干。目前还不清楚他是否理解这一点。也许他想象着未来某个阶段的满足平静，如果他奇迹般地获得了他想要的所有饼干，他可能会实现这一点。或者也许他比这更聪明，知道这一切都与旅程有关，与他对饼干的无尽追求有关。
(The Cookie Monster is anarchic, dynamic and madly driven by a very specific, but also totally random, aim: he wants cookies. He wants to charge around crazily smashing cookies into his mouth. He will never get enough cookies. It's unclear whether he understands this. Maybe he imagines some future stage of sated calm which he might achieve if, miraculously, he were to obtain all the cookies he desires. Or maybe he is wiser than that and knows it's all about the journey, his endless quest for biscuits.)
