At least for a while the road must be trod, but it will be very hard. And neither strength nor wisdom will carry us far upon it.

Albert Camus
He had awoken too late for happiness, but not for strength, and could feel an austere joy, as of a warrior who is homeless but stands fully armed. E. M. Forster
