Those who are fascinated by the idea of progress do not suspect that everything moving forward is at the same time bringing the end nearer and that joyous watchwords like "forward" and "farther" are the lascivious voice of death urging us to hasten to it. {If fascination with the word "forward" has become universal, isn't it mainly because death is already speaking to us from nearby?}
