“Tell me about yourself, when you have nothing better to do. Work as much as you can: that is still the best way. The moral of Candide, ‘we must cultivate our gardens,’ must be must be the rule for people like us, those ‘who haven’t found the answer.’ Does one, in fact, ever find it? And when one does, one seeks something else.”
