THERE IS AS YET INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER. Isaac Asimov
It is the individual who can and does make a difference even in this increasingly populous, complex world of ours. The individual can make things happen. It is the individual who can bring a tear to my eye and then cause me to take pen in hand. It is the individual who has acted or tried to act who will not only force a decision but also have a hand in shaping it.

John Grisham quote: "Critics should find meaningful work."
Critics should find meaningful work. John Grisham

If you want to know which, pay attention to what it means to be truly human in a world that half the time we're in love with and half the time scares the hell out of us. Any fiction that helps us pay attention to that is religious fiction. The unexpected sound of your name on somebody's lips. The good dream. The strange coincidence.
