Observing This Phenomenon of Assumption…

Observing this phenomenon of assumption, or crystallization of the personality over and over again, one notices some very curious cases in which it happens outside the usual time, already in maturity, sometimes on the verge of old age. For some reason, if not because of a traumatic effect, it seems that the masks suddenly fall off, suddenly become unnecessary, and the effect is quite curious because an abrupt behavioral change takes place in an adult who is already made, already recognized as such. And then, saint or monster, this version seems to be the only true one; it is certainly the definitive one.
