I believe that there is one story in the world, and only one, that had frightened and inspired us, so that we live in a Pearl White serial of continual thought and wonder. Humans are caught-in their lives, in their thoughts, in their hungers and ambitions, in their avarice and cruelty, and in their kindness and generosity too-in a net of good and evil. I think this is the only story we have and it occurs on all levels of feeling and intelligence. Virtue and vice were wool of our first consciousness, and they will be the fabric of our last, and this despite any changes we may impose on field and river and mountain, on economy and manners. There is no other story. A man, after he has brushed off the dust and chips of his life, will have left only the hard clean questions: Was it good or was it evil? Have I done well-or ill"
Wow. There is a lot of work based on that segment from this incredible book. Please do stay tuned, dear readers......,
