“Born, the Man assumes the name and image of humanity, and becomes in all things like unto other men who dwell upon the earth. Their hard lot becomes his, and his, in turn, becomes the lot of all who shall come after him. Drawn on inexorably by time, it is not given him to see the next rung on which his faltering foot shall fall. Bounded in knowledge, it is not given him to foretell what each succeeding hour, what each succeeding minute, shall have in store for him. In blind nescience, in an agony of foreboding, in a whirl of hopes and fears, he completes the cycle of an iron destiny.” MenHardEarthHumanityTurnsFallNextNamesGivenBornHoursDestinyFeetMinutesHe ManSucceedAll ThingsBlindAssumingStoresIronCyclesAgonyHopes And FearsForebodingFaltering Author:Leonid Andreyev
