21 May 99 - 09:15 AM (#80436) Subject: Thought for the Day (May 21) From: Peter T. "In fairy stories the great stars speak with little children, horses with kings, and even trees have the power of language and call out to people. In the fairy story it is not yet certain whether the stars or the flowers or the trees or humans will receive the power of language: everything is still subject to revocation, everything is still provisional. It is as though the silence in the depths of the story were considering to whom it should give language. Similarly, every event in a fairy story is like a new beginning, the example of a new law that might form the basis of a world different from our own. There is an abundance of possible worlds in the fairy story, and therefore an infinite wealth of mystery streams out from it." Max Picard, The World of Silence. |
