Is it a terrible prison, not to be able to move from the place where you’re standing?
<Today one of the brothers asked me: Is it a terrible prison, not to be able to move from the place where you’re standing?>
.<You answered . . .>
.<I told him that I am now more free than he is. The inability to move frees me from the obligation to act.>
.<You who speak languages, you are such liars.>
