Forget this stuffy political career, you think too much just let things be. You could do worse than follow my example. Life is just full of pleasures you should sample. Changing one’s clothes is the easiest way to give an added impulse to the Will to Live.

I fear the very bravest of attire would be unlikely to revive my fire. I drag my life round like an endless train. I cannot forgive myself for my mistakes. Instead of living in the world where God created men to be, I shall live, hemmed in by fire and brimstone, I think it's hell for me!
