Arbitrary Quote by Anonymous
“Each man had only one genuine vocation - to find the way to himself…His task was to discover his own destiny - not an arbitrary one - and to live it out wholly and resolutely within himself. Everything else was only a would-be existence, an attempt at evasion, a flight back to the ideals of the masses, conformity and fear of one's own inwardness.”
