I was feeling pessimistic today, so I went to Google and typed something along the lines of, "Give me something redemptive, something full of love and humanity, a trumpet call for man's greatest commonalities to speak above the damned silence of politic and apathy" and pressed "I'm feeling lucky."

It took me to the middle of The English Governess at the Siamese Court, a Victorian novel archived at fullbooks.com.

I don't know whether this is uplifting or just symptomatically ironic, but in either case I would like to congratulate Google on successfully engineering serendipity.
