Of what consequence, though our planet explode, if there is no character involved in the explosion? In health we have not the least curiosity about such events. We do not live for idle amusement. I would not run round a corner to see the world blow up.”

For the sad old earth must borrow its mirth,
But has trouble enough of its own.”
