I may be able to spot arrowheads on the desert but a refrigerator is a jungle in which i am easily lost. my wife, however, will unerringly point out that the cheese or the leftover roast is hiding right in front of my eyes. hundreds of such experiences convince me that men and women often inhabit quite different visual worlds. these are differences which cannot be attributed to variations in visual acuity. man and women simply have learned to use their eyes in very different ways.

And a refrigerator may hold a basket of strawberries, which would be important if a maniac said to you, "if you don't give me a basket of strawberries right now, i'm going to poke you with this large stick." but when the two elder baudelaires and quigley quagmire opened the refrigerator, they found nothing that would help someone who was wounded, dying of thirst, or being threatened by a strawberry-crazed, stick-carrying maniac.

Deaths, births, and marriages, considering how much they are separately dependent on the freedom of the human will, should seem to be subject to no law according to which any calculation could be made beforehand of their amount; and yet the yearly registers of these events in great countries prove that they go on with as much conformity to the laws of nature as the oscillations of the weather.
