Human, All too Human

I have imprisoned myself in my room for the last couple of days writing my thesis, and feeling Kerouac at the same time. Suddenly, looking at the outside world, I could see text on trees, road junction, the eyes of the girl working in Cold Storage and the feeling of becoming 'cuckoo' is apparent, sadly.

“It is much more often the case that a person appears to have strength of character because he continually follows his temperament than because he continually follows his principles.”
-Nietzsche in Human, All too Human (I)
