Reason's comparing balance rules the whole.
Man, but for that no action could attend,

To draw nutrition, propagate, and rot;
Or, meteor-like, flame lawless thro' the void,
Destroying others, by himself destroy'd. — Alexander Pope

An arts degree is like a diploma in origami. And about as much use. — J.G. Ballard
