The Daily Dick: Musings on the Relevance of Moby-Dick Today

From : The Fountain

"Rainbows do not visit the clear air; they only irradiate vapor. And so, through all the thick mists of the dim doubts in my mind, divine intuitions now and then shoot, enkindling my fog with a heavenly ray. And for this I thank God; for all have doubts; many deny; but doubts or denials, few along with them, have intuitions. Doubts of all things earthly, and intuitions of some things heavenly; this combination makes neither believer nor infidel, but makes a man who regards them both with equal eye."

Musing: I just needed to post a little something beautiful from Moby-Dick to cleanse me of the debate last night. Last night, I have no doubt what I heard was evil. I'm hoping from all this fog comes a rainbow.
