I have so much in me, and the feeling for her absorbs it all... - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, The Sorrows of Young Werther

"A dim vastness is spread before our souls; the perceptions of our mind are as obscure as those of our vision... But alas! when we have attained our object, when the distant 'there' becomes the present 'here,' all is changed; we are as poor and circumscribed as ever, and our souls still languish for unattainable happiness."
