Holds the World Together
An extract from Dean Koontz’s novel “The City”:
‘The news wasn’t all the news, she’d said, and what held the world together was the way all those people who never make the news were inclined to live their lives.”
A fact we so often loose sight of.
The minority who make news headlines may be extraordinary in some way (a force for good or bad) but it is the hard-working, every day man or woman, going about their ordinary lives, who are the real celebrities.
