David Nurenberg

Welcome

"The growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts, and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs."
- George Eliot (Mary Anne Evans), Middlemarch
