Way of being

  - Young man, I tell you without artifice or hesitation that whatever life might be without this pomp and wealth, I would never want it, and in no way desire to find it. Because the duty imposed by being noble and being born into this lineage is too immense to be discharged in this way, it would be more cowardice than courage.

  Too many things exist thanks to us and evolve thanks to us to be abandoned like that. 

  Even if it hurts, I will accept it.

  I could see her shaking, he touched so many convictions and doubts. 

  He shook that consciousness that had been asleep for too long.

  - He loved you. But he had every right to love others even more.

  I am sorry.

  But what bothers me so much is that, being such a woman, you still cling to an affection long since buried with its possessor and which has lost all value.

  I would never have resigned myself to such a life.
