Men often oppose a thing merely because they have had no agency in planning it, or because it may have been planned by those whom they dislike. ↗

I've got to play free agency out, and I've got to look at all of my options. ↗

I am so tired - so tired of being of being whirled on through all these phases of my life, in which nothing abides by me, no creature, no place; it is like the circle in which the victims of earthly passion eddy continually. ↗
