Imagine a number of men in chains, all under sentence of death, some of whom each day are butchered in the sight of others; those remaining see their own condition in that of their fellows, and looking at each other with grief and despair await their turn. This is an image of the human condition.
—Blaise Pascal

Not so (Miłosz)

Nature's kingdom is not our home. We belong to it, and yet we do not belong. In nature's kingdom necessity is the only good: not so for us.

Czesław Miłosz
