Our ignorance of history causes us to slander our own times. The ordinary person today lives better than a king did a century ago but is ungrateful!
Gustave FlaubertI go dreaming into the future, where I see nothing, nothing. I have no plans, no idea, no project, and, what is worse, no ambition. Something โ the eternal โwhatโs the use?โ โ sets its bronze barrier across every avenue that I open up in the realm of hypothesis.
