I Want To Go On Living Even

If I Read A Book That Impresses Me, I Have To Take Myself Firmly By The Hand, Before I Mix With Other People; Otherwise They Would Think My Mind Rather Queer.

I Hid Myself Within Myself ... And Quietly Wrote Down All My Joys, Sorrows And Contempt In My Diary.

Riches, Power And Fame Last Only For A Few Years! Why Do People Cling So Desperately To These Transitory Things? Why Can't People Who Have More Than They Need For Themselves Give That Surplus To Their Fellow Citizens? Why Should Some People Have Such A Hard Time During Their Few Years On This Earth?

I Want To Go On Living After My Death!

I... Keep Trying To Find A Way To Become What I'd Like To Be And What I Could Be If... If Only There Were No Other People In The World.
