Don't be afraid of discontent, but give it nourishment until the spark becomes a flame and you are everlastingly discontented with everything – with your job, with your family, with the traditional pursuit of money, position, power – so that you really begin to think, to discover. But as you grow older, you will find that to maintain this spirit of discontent is very difficult. You have children to provide for and the demands of your job to consider; the opinion of your neighbours, of society closes in upon you, and soon you begin to lose this burning flame of discontent.
