“Man is alone in the world, in tremendous eternal isolation. He has no object outside himself; lives for nothing else; he is far removed from being the slave of his wishes, of his abilities, of his necessities; he stands far above social ethics; he is alone. Thus he becomes one and all.” MenWorldWishSocialAbilityObjectsEternalEthicsSlaveIsolation Book:Sex & Character Source: Sex & Character
