Yet day by day I sat at my desk in utter solitude and peace with nothing to disturb my quiet but the call of the gulls and the sound of the Atlantic breaking eternally on the rocks below my window. It seemed all but incredible that these two aspects of life could exist side by side - the surface so beautiful the under side so terrible. But is not this a picture of life itself and more especially of man The surface the facade of civilization looks so smooth and fair; yet beneath the cultured mask of consciousness what savage impulses what ruthless monsters of the deep await a chance to seize the mastery and despoil the world!" - from preface.
