    The abdication of Belief
    Makes the Behavior small—
    Better an ignis fatuus
    Than no illume at all.

    One never gets to know a person’s character better than by watching his behavior during decisive moments.... It is always only danger which forces the most deeply hidden strengths and abilities of a human being to come forth.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)
