“Every human being on this earth is born with a tragedy, and it isn't original sin. He's born with the tragedy that he has to grow up. That he has to leave the nest, the security, and go out to do battle. He has to lose everything that is lovely and fight for a new loveliness of his own making, and it's a tragedy. A lot of people don't have the courage to do it.”

Other languages for this quoteOgni essere umano su questa terra è nato con una tragedia incombente, e non si tratta del peccato originale. Egli è nato con la tragedia incombente che dovrà crescere. Che dovrà lasciare il nido, la sicurezza ed uscire a combattere nel mondo. Dovrà perdere ogni cosa che gli è piacevole e combattere per una nuova piacevolezza da lui costruita, ed è una tragedia. Un sacco di gente non ha il coraggio di farlo.
