“My life was painful, incoherent and unhappy, it led me to renunciation and denial, it tasted of human bitterness, but it was rich, proud, sovereign even in misery. What did it matter that the small stretch of road that remained until nightfall was also miserably lost; The core of this life was noble, it had dignity, race: I didn't bet pennies, I bet stars."
