" "«Se desço ao meu coração, encontro cinzas e uma lareira extinta. O vulcão cumpriu seu incêndio e dele apenas restam o calor e a lava que se agitam à superfície, e, quando tudo se houver gelado e as coisas se houverem cumprido, nada mais restará - uma indefínivel lembrança como que de algo que pudesse ter sido e que não foi - a lembrança dos meios que deveriam ter sido empregues para a felicidade e que se deixaram perdidos na inércia dos desejõs titânicos escorraçados de dentro de nós, sem que tão-pouco tivessem podido chegar cá fora, que minaram a alma de esperanças, de ansiedades, de votos sem fruto... e depois nada», Mazzini era um desterrado, um desterrado da eternidade.

And therefore when we pray to Him, and cause canticles and hymns to rise to Him, is it not that we may lull Him to sleep, rocking the cradle of His dreams? Is not the whole liturgy, of all religions, only a way perhaps of soothing God in His dreams, so that He shall not wake and cease to dream us?

Suffering is a spiritual thing. It is the most immediate revelation of consciousness, and it may be that our body was given us simply in order that suffering might be enabled to manifest itself. A man who had never known suffering, either in greater or less degree, would scarcely possess consciousness of himself. The child first cries at birth when the air, entering into his lungs and limiting him, seems to say to him: You have to breathe me in order to live!
