    EPIGRAPH: The future is a door. Two forces -- forces that we drive like horses and chariouts, whips to their backs, wheels in ruts, great froth and furious vigor -- race to that door. The first force is evolution. Humanity changing, growing, becoming better than it was. The second force is ruination. Humanity making its best effort to demonstrate its worst tendencies. A march toward self-destruction. Will humanity evolve and become something better? Or will we cut our own throats with the knives we made?

    EPIGRAPH: She’s only a bird in a gilded cage, A beautiful sight to see. You may think she is happy and free from care, She’s not, though she seems to be. ’Tis sad when you think of her wasted life For youth cannot mate with age; And her beauty was sold for an old man’s gold, She’s a bird in a gilded cage.
