Of course genes can’t pull the levers of our behavior directly. But they affect the wiring and workings of the brain, and the brain is the seat of our drives, temperaments and patterns of thought.

Some opportunities we come across click with our constitutions and set us along a path in life.

Shadows we loved and the patterns they covered the ground with Tapestries, mystical, faint in the breathless air.


F. Scott Fitzgerald
