"A grown man is imprisoned by his consciousness. As soon as he has spoken or acted effectively even once, he is already a prisoner, guarded by the sympathy or hatred of hundreds and hundreds, whose feelings he must henceforth always consider.

A grown man is imprisoned by his consciousness. As soon as he has spoken or acted effectively even once, he is already a prisoner, guarded by the sympathy or hatred of hundreds and hundreds, whose feelings he must henceforth always consider.
"Hungarian
"A felnőtt embert börtönbe zárja a tudatossága. Mihelyest csak egyszer is hatásosan beszélt vagy cselekedett, már fogoly, akit százak és százak rokonszenve vagy gyűlölete őriz, s akiknek érzelmeit neki ezentúl mindig fontolóra kell vennie."
