Summary

This quote emphasizes the ephemeral nature of human existence in relation to the constant cycle of news. It suggests that even though we may consider ancient texts, like those of Homer, as timeless and significant, they were once contemporary and fresh like the daily news of today. Thus, it implies that every day brings new narratives, stories, and events that will eventually become part of historyâ€™s tapestry. The quote invites us to appreciate the present moment and recognize that, in the grand scheme of things, every passing day holds its own significance and contributes to the ongoing flow of human history.

Why do they blame me for all their little failings? They use my name as if I spent my entire days sitting on their shoulders, forcing them to commits acts they would otherwise find repulsive. 'The devil made me do it.' I have never made one of them do anything. Never. They live their own tiny lives. I do not live their lives for them.

Insist on yourself; never imitate. Your own gift you can present every moment with the cumulative force of a whole life's cultivation; but of the adopted talent of another you have only an extemporaneous half possession.
