'Alarm’ was originally a call to arms. The Italian phrase ‘all’arme!’ means literally “to arms” or “to your weapons.” We'd still probably hit 'snooze.'

? To what end? What could I comprehend that would make me believe it's senseless? Why forgo growth? Why let go pursuit of intellect? Why turn to neglect? When did fighting vastness stop being relentless?
