An atheist in despair seeks: Meaning in philosophy, Beauty in esthetics, Interest in disaster, Comfort in friendship, Cure in science, Tranquility in contemplation, Perspective in nature, Relief in pleasure, Dignity in self-reliance, Freedom in isolation, Antidote in action, And eternity in creativity.
