Week 1 - Day 1 - Mere Curiosity

I took the book with me on a longish drive through the heart of the city at rush hour. Some of the traffic signals have 3 minute stops. At rush hour one usually gets stuck twice. Six minutes per signal and three such signals, is time well spent with a book.
The first sentence stumped me truly. It goes "That much gathers more is true on every plane of existence and that loss leads to greater loss is equally true". It did that to you too? [am not alone! :)]
Read it as "that much; gathers more"; than reading it the right way - "that; much gathers more" [How easy, in hindsight]

But I must tell you. This is a great way to handle waiting at traffic signals.
