I think what we call the dullness of things is a disease in ourselves. Else how could anyone find an intense interest in life? And many do.
George EliotThere is no hour that has not its births of gladness and despair, no morning brightness that does not bring new sickness to desolation as well as new forces to genius and love. There are so many of us, and our lots are so different, what wonder that Nature's mood is often in harsh contrast with the great crisis of our lives?
George Eliot
