When you find human society disagreeable and feel yourself justified in flying to solitude, you may be so constituted as to be unable to bear the depression of it for any length of time, which will probably be the case if you are young. Let me advise you, then, to form the habit of taking some of your solitude with you into society, to learn to be to some extent alone even though you are in company: not to say at once what you think, and, on the other hand, not to attach too precise a meaning to what others say; rather not to expect much of them, either morally or intellectually and to strengthen yourself in the feeling of indifference to their opinion, which is the surest way of always practicing a praiseworthy toleration. If you do that, you will not live so much with other people, though you may appear to move among them; your relation to them will be of purely objective character. This precaution will keep you from too close contact with society, and therefore secure you against being contaminated or even outraged by it. Society is in this respect like a fire — the wise man warming himself at a proper distance from it; not coming too close like the fool, who, on getting scorched, runs away and shivers in solitude, loud in his complaint that the fire burns.
Gospodine Medvjed, imate li Vi prevod na nas jezik ?
Duboka je misao u stalnom nastajanju, preuzima životno iskustvo i oblikuje se po njemu. Jednako se i jedinstveno stvaranje nekog čovjeka učvršćuje u njegovim uzastopnim i mnogobrojnim licima, a to su njegova djela. Jedna dopunjuju druga, popravljaju ih ili ih dostižu, a također i proturječe jedna drugima. Ako nešto dovršava stvaranje, onda to nije pobjednički i iluzorni povik zaslijepljena umjetnika: „Rekao sam sve”, već stvaraočeva smrt koja
zaključuje njegovo iskustvo i knjigu njegova genija.
On je nešto što svako drugačije gleda. 'Labirint' je toliki da svako drugačije kroz njega ide i da se desi da neko prolazi kroz iste hodnike i prostorije, njihov redoslijed se razlikuje pa time i iskustvo. Čin da svoje iskustvo i znanje pretvori u određeni sadržaj, u mom slučaju riječi, je ono što umjetnika čini umjetnikom.
Kada bi se ogromne mase ljudi kroz obrazovanje naučile razmišljati SVOJOM glavom, shvatile bi prije ili kasnije da privilegirana manjina nema nikakvu korisnu funkciju i uklonile bi je. Hijerarhijsko društvo može opstati samo na temelju siromaštva i neznanja.
