From the Prologue of Tolerance: Happily lived Mankind in the peaceful valley of ignorance. To the north, to the south, to the west and to the east stretched the ridges of the Hills Everlasting. A little stream of Knowledge trickled slowly through a deep worn gully. It came out of the Mountains of the Past. It lost itself in the Marshes of the Future. It was not much, as rivers go. But it was enough for the humble needs of the villagers.
