“There burned in him a love without object that shattered his inner being. At the slightest inducement, the flames of passion would break out; but soon, from pride or willfulness, this passion seemed to scorn its object and would turn back, doubly enraged, on itself and him, in order to feed on the core of his heart.” — Friedrich Schlegel
