In the voice of God speaking to Adam: "I have placed you at the very center of the world, so that from that vantage point you may with greater ease glance round about you on all that the world contains. We have made you a creature neither of heaven nor of earth, neither mortal nor immortal, in order that you may, as the free and proud shaper of your own being, fashion yourself in the form you may prefer."
Giovanni Pico della Mirandola, Oration on the Dignity of Man, trans. A. Robert Caponigri (1487; Washington D.C.: Gateway, 1956), 7.
