Bleeker Street

New York City, New York


Droll thing life is—that mysterious arrangement of merciless logic for a futile purpose. The most you can hope from it is some knowledge of yourself—that comes too late—a crop of unextinguishable regrets.
Joseph Conrad (1857–1924), Polish-born British writer. Heart of Darkness, ch. 3, p. 65, Dover Publications (1990).
