Part I:
What God has given each of us to be, cannot be enlarged, but only realized... And so our struggle and strain to be something more than this, to be grand in the eyes of the world, not only blinds us to the futility of these efforts, but puts us in conflict with everyone and everything that is seen as trying to deny us our demands.
Part II:
History proves that never has there been anyone who, for the sake of acquisition alone, ever felt as if he had acquired enough, which also proves that those who would possess the world are themselves the possession of an incomplete spirit that is only satisfied by wanting.
