Does The World Have Meaning?

[from Living By Fiction © 1982 by Annie Dillard, p185:]

---Which shall it be?  Do art's complex and balanced relationships among all parts, its purpose, significance, and harmony, exist in nature?  Is nature whole, like a completed thought?  Is history purposeful?  Is the universe of matter significant?  I am sorry; I do not know.

[Here's to the asking of questions, big and little.  Good job, Annie.

Be well, gentle reader; don't let the bastards get you down.]
