Geçen aylarda okuyup da en çok etkilendiğim pasajlardan biri bu. 3.yy’da bir gözlemcinin o günün dünyası hakkındaki görüşleri. Bu döneme şu an boşuna karanlık çağ demiyoruz sanırım.
“You must know that the world has grown old, and does not remain in its former vigour. It bears witness to its own decline. The rainfall and the sun’s warmth are both diminishing; the metals are nearly exhausted; the husbandman is failing in the fields, the sailor on the seas, the soldier in the camp, honesty in the market, justice in the courts, concord in friendships, skill in the arts, discipline in morals. This is the sentence passed upon the world, that everything which has a beginning should perish, that things which have reached maturity should grow old, the strong weak, the great small, and after weakness and shrinkage should come dissolution.“
-Cyprian, Ad Demetr.
