In the cause of universal worship, they have destroyed each other with the sword. They have made gods and called upon each other: “Abandon your gods and come and worship ours, otherwise death to you and your gods!” And so it will be until the end of the world, even when all gods have disappeared from the earth: they will still fall down before idols.

And if even one such man, at least, finds himself at the head of that whole army ‘lusting for power only for the sake of filthy lucre,’ is one such man, at least, not enough to make a tragedy?

There are three powers, only three powers on earth, capable of conquering and holding captive forever the conscience of these feeble rebels, for their own happiness—these powers are miracle, mystery, and authority.

Thank you, Aphrodite! Elettra! Mark. Nice to meet you.Just a quick visit to another world. Strong stuff. Maybe too true.✌️
Thank you, Carla!I apologize for ranting. I know better than to read the news. Dostoyevsky knows us all too well, and refuses not to say. So it goes.✌️
Thank you, Vanitha!This one is the hardest to bear, for it still goes on everyday.😔
I picked this up just as a temporary diversion. Reading Wallace and rereading Joyce together is a lot of fun, but living in Trumptopia is such a burden these days, such darkness they pedal, that I thought, maybe, a quick visit with the Master of darkness might give me some perspective, for the D-man certainly knows who we are.✌️
