...क्या पैंतीस वर्ष से अधिक उम्र का कोई भी ऐसा व्यक्ति नहीं था जिसके पास कोई गुप्त पीड़ा, कोई चेहरा उड़ा देने वाला डर न हो? जीवन का आधा हिस्सा इंसान बेपरवाह होकर बिताता है, यह मानकर कि एक दिन उसे उसकी इच्छा की हर चीज मिल जाएगी: और बाकी के आधे हिस्से में, या तो वह खाली हाथ रहता है, या फिर हर कदम पर डरते हुए, लबालब भरा प्याला हाथ में लेकर चलता है।

... was there no one over thirty-five who had not some secret agony, some white-faced fear? Half one's life one walked carelessly, certain that some day one would have one's heart's desire: and for the rest of it, one either goes empty, or walks carrying a full cup, afraid of every step.

जवानी में आया तूफान या बरबादी बहुत दुखद होती है, लेकिन वसंत के विषुव (इक्वॉक्स) पर तूफानों की उम्मीद तो रहती ही है। असल में, पतझड़ का विषुव ही सब कुछ डुबो देता है।
