"Goddess, the world of men is a world of incomprehension," [Master Li] said softly. "Our senses are woefully limited. Our brains are but tiny candles flickering in an infinity of darkness. Our only wisdom is to admit that we cannot understand, and since we cannot understand we must do the best we can with faith, which is our only talent. The greatest act of faith we are capable of is that of loving another more than we love ourselves, and occasionally we can be quite good at it ... We thank you for hoping that the one tiny talent of man might achieve what other forces could not ..." -- The Story of the Stone, by Barry Hughart.
