“Are you a seeker? Have you got a divine urge, or need?”
“How do I know?” laughed Aaron. “Perhaps I've got a DAMNED urge, at the bottom of me. I'm sure it's nothing divine.”
“Very well then. Now, in life, there are only two great dynamic urges—do you believe me—?”
“How do I know?” laughed Aaron. “Do you want to be believed?”
“No, I don't care a straw. Only for your own sake, you'd better believe me.”
“All right then—what about it?”
“Well, then, there are only two great dynamic urges in LIFE: love and power.”
“Love and power?” said Aaron. “I don't see power as so very important.”
“You don't see because you don't look. But that's not the point. What sort of urge is your urge? Is it the love urge?”
“I don't know,” said Aaron.
