Telepathy

Our knowledge and sciences are different; they changes over the ages in many respects, and what we knew 1,000 years ago is not the same as that known now.

But our love is the same. Our emotions burn with the same fire as that which enflamed love in Romeo and Juliet and as that which kindled the hate in MacBeth.
Our emotions are timeless throughout the history of the species: we are connected to the dim past and the far away future in a deathless embrace of existence.

(meditation on Broken Blossoms by D.W. Griffith. The screenplay was based on a story by Thomas Burke in the collection Limehouse Nights, an old copy of which with woodcut illustrations I own.  This same story was used as one of Isak Dinesen's in the film Out of Africa as being a story she told dinner guests.)
