Gravity:
“When man is so tiny and Earth is so great we can only see gravity as operating in the perpendicular. We think of ourselves as individuals with gravity pulling in perpendiculars parallel to one another. But we know that in actuality radii converge. We do not realize that you and I are interattracted because gravity is so big. The attraction is there but it seems so minor we dismiss it as something we call ‘aesthetics’ or ‘love affair’. Gravity seems so vertical.”
