I am the master! I stretch forth my hands, even to the skies! I lay my hands upon the stars, as on the crystal wheels of the harmonica. Now fast, now slow, as my soul wills, I turn the stars. I weave them into rainbows, harmonies. I feel immortality! I create immortality!

He intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was not part of his intention
-- Adam Smith
