What ever is man, this much appreciated demigod? Doesn't his strength abandon him in moments of need? And that he may take flight with joy or collapse in pain, isn't he arrested in both cases, lead back to the dark, cold feeling of himself, whilst he intended losing himself in the ocean of infinity?
from the book "The Sorrows of Young Werther" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
