It's a good thing to turn your mind upside down now and then, like an hour-glass, to let the particles run the other way.

My theology, briefly, is that the universe was dictated but not signed.

Printer's ink has been running a race against gunpowder these many, many years. Ink is handicapped, in a way, because you can blow up a man with gunpowder in half a second, while it may take twenty years to blow him up with a book. But the gunpowder destroys itself along with its victim, while a book can keep on exploding for centuries.
