For know that no one is free, except Zeus.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the idea that true freedom is an exclusive attribute of Zeus, the supreme god in Greek mythology. It implies that every individual, regardless of status or power, is ultimately bound by some form of limitation or responsibility. This statement could inspire reflection on the inherent constraints and limitations that govern human existence, suggesting that absolute freedom is unattainable for mortals, while reserved only for divine beings.

If only you and I (or you or I) doesn't go and die before we have a chance to meet! And yet, if we did no doubt there would be some good and loving reason for it. I am (except in bad moods) more convinced of that all the time. We shall meet and be happy together if it is good for us: otherwise not (e.g. I might after all be disappointed in a hope I sometimes cherish that you would find me a little less aggressive and dictatorial and arrogant than I have often been in the old days. But who knows? The first argument might shatter all these good resolutions!)
