“You should never be here too much; be so far away that they
can’t find you, they can’t get at you to shape, to mould. Be so far
away, like the mountains, like the unpolluted air; be so far away that
you have no parents, no relations, no family, no country; be so far away
that you don’t know even where you are. Keep far away; keep a distance
which can never be crossed over; keep a passage open always through
which no one can come. Don’t let them find you; don’t come into contact
with them too closely. You should never be here too much, be so far away
that even you cannot find yourself.”
