One of the basic rules of the universe is that nothing is perfect. Perfection simply doesn't exist... Without imperfection, neither you nor I would exist.
Stephen Hawking

Life is, in fact, a struggle. On this point pessimists and optimists agree. Evil is insolent and strong; beauty is beautiful, but rare; goodness is often apt to be weak, folly to be arrogant, and wickedness to prevail; fools in the places of honor and the best aloof; and humanity, as a whole, unhappy.
Henry James
