पितृमोक्ष अमावस्या) in Marathi calendar.
Richard Dawkins:
"As things stand, it appears that all known life forms
can be traced to a single ancestor which lived more than 3 billion years ago.”
Alexis de Tocqueville, ‘Democracy in America’:
“Not only does democracy make each man forget his ancestors, it hides his descendants from him, and divides him from his contemporaries; it continually turns him back into himself, and threatens, at last, to enclose him entirely in the solitude of his own heart.”
Well, not each man...
Artist: Barney Tobey, The New Yorker, June 23 1975
