This means that basically even today we believe that the moon is in the sky only to give us light at night, like the sun in the daytime, and the stars are there to afford us a magnificent display. Naturally. And we often gladly forget that we are infinitesimal atoms; instead we respect and admire one another and are even capable of fighting for a scrap of land or of grieving over certain things which, if we were really aware of what we are, would seem incalculably trivial.
Luigi Pirandello. —
