Sorry about the double post and followup to 2 groups. It's a
guarter to 6AM here. Sigh.

What if a demon were to creep after you one night, in your
loneliest loneliness, and say, 'This life which you live must be
lived by you once again and innumerable times more; and every
pain and joy and thought and sigh must come again to you, all in
the same sequence. The eternal hourglass will again and again be
turned and you with it, dust of the dust!' Would you throw
yourself down and gnash your teeth and curse that demon? Or
would you answer, 'Never have I heard anything more divine'?
