Soul
"Just as man's body contains all the animals and all the elements of the earth, so does it contain all the human beings. And all sin, all morality. Only as in the grass one thread is longer and another shorter, so in our souls the sins and the morals differ in their threads. This is the reason why the writer understands all sins and all morals and reproduces them in his works, and why the actor, when he illustrates a work of writing, can reproduce the characters in it."
