«I am the very slave of circumstance / And impulse - borne away with every breath!»
«I believe that it may happen that one will succeed, and one must not begin to despair, even though defeated here and there; and even though one sometimes feels a kind of decay, though things go differently from the expected, it is necessary to take heart again and new courage.

How does one learn it? It is working through an invisible iron wall that seems to stand between what one feels and what one can do.»
