Considered as a mere question of physics, (and keeping all moral considerations entirely out of sight,) the appearance of man is a geological phenomenon of vast importance, indirectly modifying the whole surface of the earth, breaking in upon any supposition of zoological continuity, and utterly unaccounted for by what we have any right to call the laws of nature.

We'd better double up in the shower.'
P. J. O'Rourke

Nor doomsday’s thunderous roar,Dismantling earth and stars - The cosmic beauties all to mar - Not Nature’s murderous mutiny,Nor man’s exploding destinyCan touch me here.

Prosperity knits a man to the world. He feels that he is finding his place in it while really it is finding its place in him.
