“A life hits the mark when it is lived towards, with and of the most fundamental of whatever events and ideas are abroad in the world at that particular moment. It is useless for you to be an admirable person if you do not live what is fundamental in your epoch. In order to achieve this, your life has to stop sliding across the world ... it must, on the contrary, sink its teeth into it."
