"In a dark time, the eye begins to see...Were the Greeks right, after all? Perhaps it is only in the dark times that the pale light of intelligence, going out from the eye, can make its way in the world without being washed away by the fierce light of the sun..The light of the mind returns to bear extraordinary gifts."
