The Nonesuch

All views that I have held have been questioned by minds greater and lesser. All views of mine, singly and severally, cannot put aside, as Lewis put it, "the logical exclusion of dispute".
Except for this one.
I was, west of the Azores and north of Trinidad, the cutest child ever born.
This pronouncement includes mine own children and, of course, yours.

Admittedly, in the spirit of Christian humility, I have not worn well. Each of you can feel free to consider yourself a better looking adult than the Oracle.

The parents thought no more of creating his cuteness than the boy himself. And it is his "cute", is it not? You wouldn't look at a beautiful woman and say, "Boy, She's so beautiful I want to marry her parents."
And yes, it is a cage.
