I was reading the new issue of Times magazine and I came across this quote, and I absolutely loved it soI thought I would share
"If the entire human species were a single individual, that person would long ago have been declared mad. The insanity would not lie in the anger and darkness of the human mind - though it can be a black and raging place indeed. And it certainly wouldn't lie in the transcendent goodness of that mind - one so sublime, we fold into a larger "soul." The madness would lie instead in the fact that both of those qualities, the savage and the splendid, can exist in one creature, one person, often in one instant.
We're a species that is capable of almost dumbfounding kidness. We nurse one another, romance one another, weep for one another. Ever since science taught us how, we willing tear the very organs from our bodies and give them to one another. And at the same time we slaughter one another."
