  Hermann Hesse (2013). “The Journey to the East: A Novel”, p.106, Macmillan

• As every flower fades and as all youth departs, so life at every stage, so every virtue, so our grasp of truth blooms in its day and may not last forever.

In all beginnings dwells a magic force for guarding us and helping us to live.
