I found this.
What is man that his welfare be considered? An ape that chatters of kinship with the archangels while he very filthily digs for groundnuts. And yet I perceive that this same man is a maimed god. He is condemned under penalty to measure eternity with an hourglass and infinity with a yardstick and what is more he very nearly does it.
Anybody recognise it?
