The Vocation of Man
First words
Introduction

"Whatever is great and good in our own age is wholly due to this, that noble and strong men in the past have for the sake of ideas made sacrifice of all the enjoyments of life."
Preface

Whatever in the more recent Philosophy is useful beyond the limits of the schools will form the contents of this work, set forth in that order in which it would naturally present itself to unscientific thought.
Last words
(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)Thus do I live, thus am I, and thus am I unchangeable, firm, and completed for all Eternity; -- for this is no existence assumed from without, -- it is my own, true, essential Life and Being.
