Ideally, a new bed would be advantageous, both physically and symbolically. [...]

[...] There are also great failures — but these are failures only in comparison with the glittering inner knowledge of the imagination that holds for you those ideals against which you judge your acts.

Those ideals are present in each individual. [...]

[...] In more “ideal” environments such activity would flourish to some extent, particularly before and after prime reproductive years.

Again, he does not have to feel—and he should not feel—that ideally he should be a public personality, going abroad to sell our ideas. [...]
