I Can. Therefore, I Will

On Earth, man occupies a peculiar position that sets him apart him from all other
entities in our planet. While all the other things – animate or inanimate, living or nonliving – behave according to regular patterns to balance nature, man seems to enjoy –
within definite limits – a small amount of freedom. Man controls his way of living,
speaks his own language, perceives and learns great amount of knowledge, manages his
emotions, and deals properly with problems he faces. All of which is unique to man only.
There is, in fact, within the infinite expanse of the universe a small field in which man’s
conscious conduct can change the course of events.
