Featuring samples from Zachary Brewster-Geisz's excellent reading of GK Chesterton's "The Man Who was Thursday," which is in the public domain: librivox.org Lyrics: Listen to me. Shall I tell you the secret of the whole world? It is that we have only known the back of the world. We see everything from behind, and it looks brutal. Can you not see that everything is stooping ... and hiding a face? Do you see this lantern? Do you see the cross carved on it and the flame inside? You did not make it. You did not light it. Better men than you, men who could believe and obey, twisted the entrails of iron and preserved the legend of fire There is not a street you walk on, there is not a thread you wear, that was not made as this lantern was, by denying your philosophy of dirt and rats. You can make nothing. You can only destroy. You will destroy mankind. You will destroy the world. Let that suffice you. Yet this one old Christian lantern you shall not destroy. It shall go where your empire of apes will never have the wit to find it. You only see the tree by the light of the lamp. I wonder when you would ever see the lamp by the light of the tree?
