Morality and Chance

Written by tragic.sense — September 25, 2021

We prefer to found our lives on the pretence that ‘morality’ wins out in the end.

Yet we do not really believe it.

At bottom, we know that nothing can make us proof against fate and chance.

Moral philosophy is very largely a branch of fiction.

Straw Dogs, John Grey, 2004.
