“There are far too many gentle, good young people, particularly enamoured, who are really hooked on being unhappy. Leave all that – the melancholy, moonlight and the rest of that rubbish – and if events should on occasion take a turn for the worse, just stride out into God’s free morning, and once outside, shake off your cares in a prayer born in your heart of hearts; and you will have to be in a bad way for that not to send joy and strength flowing right through you!” - from Das Marmorbild, Joseph von Eichendorff.
