They will speak harshly of my horrible egotism and my lack of morals. But there are many ways of being egotistic and there are also many ways to be moral. I would like to be judged by a physiologist-psychologist who has carefully studied the little mechanism that controls my soul’s movements. I am inclined to think that a transmission belt has been broken for a while in my little internal machine. In the beginning, it is this belt that communicated to the cog of my will the movements of my emotions. Now my generous thoughts (I have them sometimes) do not have the power to make me act.
