“Un lucru a săpat rădăcini adânci în sufletul meu: credinţa că morala stă la baza tuturor lucrurilor şi că adevărul este substanţa întregii moralităţi. Astfel că adevărul a devenit singurul meu scop.

“Why
should I, who have no need to work for food, spin? ' may be the question

into your pocket, and you will realise the truth of what I write. Every one
must spin.”
