Sunday Sentence: Ru Freeman's 'On Sal Mal Lane'

Thanks to the idea from Fobbit author David Abrams as The Quivering Pen, here is today's Sunday Sentence, presented without further comment:

And perhaps it is such lapses of memory that are proof that there is some divine hand in human life, some unseen benevolence that protects child and adult alike, allowing them to believe that what occurs in this world is inevitable and preordained and that nothing that had been done could have been done otherwise.

-- On Sal Mal Lane by Ru Freeman
