"Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. The really great men must, I think, have great sadness on earth." —Fyodor DostoevskyYes, I think I haven't been seeing things in the right perspective after all, from an inflated view of how we are connected in some way in this world. Step back, step back; and the illusion disperses. I was young Werther, unworthy of Lotte. I wish I had never read this book that mimics my present situation in life; but if I hadn't I might have ended up like poor Werther, dead and unloved and unpitied.
