"When we have reduced needless servituse to a minimum, and avoided unnecessary ills we are still left with a long series of true evils to keep the heroic virtues alive: death, old age, incurable illnesses, unrequited love, friendship rejected or betrayed, the mediocrity of a life that is always on a smaller scale than we looked for and less colourful than our dreams: all the ills caused by the divine nature of things."
