yet what is perpetually present, what it is therefore permissible to love, is the very possibility of misfortune. the three facets of our being are always exposed to it. our flesh is fragile; any piece of matter in motion can pierce it, tear it, smash it, or derange forever one of our internal mechanisms. our soul is vulnerable, subset to depression without cause, pitiably dependent on all manner of things and being which are in their turn fragile and capricious. our social self on which the feeling of our existence practically depends is always and entirely exposed to every possible hazard. the center of our being is bound to those three things with fibers so tender that it feels their wounds, to the point of bleeding. what diminishes or destroys our social prestige, especially our right to consideration, seems to alter or abolish our very essence, so much so that illusion is our very substance

...the monomaniac incarnation of all those

malicious agencies which some deep men feel

eating in them, til they are left living on with

half a heart and half a lung.

-Melville, Moby Dick
