From Rime to Reason: Or the Great San Francisco Earthquake Rhythmically, Orchestically, and Logically Considered
Excerpt from From Rime to Reason: Or the Great San Francisco Earthquake Rhythmically, Orchestically, and Logically Considered
"Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Lord, and teachest him out of thy law." - Psalms XCIV, 12.
By many ways and modes have I come unto my truth; unto the height whence mine eye regardeth the art-work of the future and where my mind contemplateth the transvaluation of many values.
"Behold, here is a new table! But where are my brethren to carry it down unto the valley and into hearts of flesh? - Thus spake Zarathustra." - Nietzsche.
"I have departed from the house of scholars, and the door I have shut behind." - Nietzsche.
I have returned to the house of scholars, opened the door, and, behold, I find it a proud charnel-house. But, verily, it is about to have a most remarkable shaking.
