“We came from some place and we are trending in a particular direction. Without memories, we do not know where we come from, and we cannot project our future trajectory. Without a keen awareness of our history, we cannot pose any meaningful hypothesis or engage in any useful speculation regarding the future of humankind. Without knowing where humankind came from and failing to contemplate where humankind is going, we could never touch upon a comprehensive understanding of the mythology and mystery of human nature. Such a spectacle would preclude us from comprehending what it truly means to be human. Melodious memories assist us to feel in our bones what being actually entails in its full aesthetic splendor.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls“Because survival and love are the immortal truths of humankind, no generation is a total stranger to the forerunner generations of humankind.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls“It is said that God has created man in his own image. But it may be that humankind has created God in the image of humankind.”
