A man cannot live intensely except at the cost of the self

Children live on one side of despair, the awakened on the other side. p.83

Siddhartha has one single goal-to become empty, to become empty of thirst, desire, dreams, pleasure and sorrow-to let the Self die. No longer to be Self, to experience the peace of an emptied heart, to experience pure thought-that was his goal.
