My
one fear is that tomorrow I may die without having come to know myself.
In the course of my life I have discovered that a fearful abyss lies
between me and other people and have realized that my best course is to
remain silent and keep my thoughts to myself for as long as I can. If I
have now made up my mind to write it is only in order to reveal myself
to my shadow, that shadow which at this moment is stretched across the
wall in the attitude of one devouring with insatiable appetite each word
I write. It is for sake that I wish to make the attempt. Who knows? We
may perhaps come to know each other better. Ever since I broke the last
ties which held me to the rest of mankind my one desire has been to
attain a better knowledge of myself.
