One of the strongest motives that lead men to art and science is escape from everyday life with its painful crudity and hopeless dreariness, from the fetters of one''s own ever-shifting desires. A finely tempered nature longs to escape from the personal life into the world of objective perception and thought.

引导人们走向艺术和科学的最强烈的动机之一，是摆脱日常生活中令人痛苦的粗俗和无望的沉闷，摆脱自己不断变化的欲望的束缚。性情温和的人渴望逃离个人生活，进入客观的感知和思考的世界。
