Can you guess the subject of this sentence? Forever wonderful, unexplainahle, it is yet intensely, most indubitably real. —Littell's Living Age, 1853
Here's the answer in context (in black text on the black background. Highlight it to view.) Life is, indeed, the 'perennial standing miracle of the universe.' ... This fact if being alive is not to be denied or questioned; if all else were doubtful, this is certain—here we are! conscious living beings, with an actual destiny in the present and in the future, the issues and the mystery whereof our deepest intuitions cannot fathom.

"Consciousness manifests itself indubitably in man and therefore, glimpsed in this one flash of light, it reveals itself as having a cosmic extension and consequently as being aureoled by limitless prolongations in space and time."* — Frank Herbert & Bill Ransom, The Ascension Factor (1988)
