BETWEEN TWO AGES "Human life is reduced to real suffering, to hell,

BETWEEN TWO AGES "Human life is reduced to real suffering, to hell, only when two ages, two cultures and religions
overlap....
There are times when a whole generation is caught in this way between two ages, two modes of life with the consequences that it loses all power to understand itself and has no standard, no security, no simple acquiescence.
-HERMAN HESSE, Steppenwolf
