Should we not from that moment be at a stand-still in all the principal movements of our lives? (Robert Chambers (publisher born 1802))

From the first place of liquid darkness, within the second place of air and light, I set down the following record with its mixture of fact and truths and memories of truths and its direction always toward the Third Place, where the starting point is myth. View quote
