Pessimism is justifiable; what does not seem sensible is, despite the pessimism, to allow oneself to live a life whose days are not filled with enthusiasm. Screw the circumstances! If not for enjoying them, let there be motivation to change them! Let there be at least one opportunity in waking up, and a lesson in the failure of the day before. If it is to live, let it be with courage and energy! The man who, sitting on his own rationality, denies himself this minimum, will do more and better for honor by ceasing to be.
