just started but: "we are powerful enough to light the world at night, to artificially refrigerate food, to leave Earth's atmosphere and orbit it from outer space. but we cannot save those we love from suffering. this is the story of human history as i understand it -- the story of an organism that can do so much, but cannot do what it most wants" OMG??
