a costly, easily injured, easily tarnished measuring instrument and mirroring apparatus, which is to be taken care of and respected; but he is no goal, not outgoing nor upgoing, no complementary man in whom the of existence justifies itself, no termination and still less a commencement, an engendering, or primary cause, nothing hardy, powerful, self centred, that wants to be master; but rather only a soft, inflated, delicate, movable potter's form, that must wait for some kind of content and frame to shape itself thereto for the most part a man without frame and content, a selfless man.
