Anyone here who have read the swedish classic Doctor Glas by Hjalmar Söderberg?
"People want to be loved; failing that admired; failing that feared; failing that hated and despised. They want to evoke some sort of sentiment. The soul shudders before oblivion and seeks connection at any price."
That sentence has stayed with me ever since i read it in highschool.
