Quote by José Saramago

“A still clearer case is that of the two stone chests buried by the Moors, one containing gold and the other containing the plagues. It is said that, fearful of opening the wrong chest, no one had had the courage to look for them. But if that's true, how is it that the plague has spread throughout the world.”
