More From Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

There are two main human sins from which all the others derive: impatience and indolence. it was because of impatience that they were expelled from paradise; it is because of indolence that they do not return. yet perhaps there is only one major sin: impatience. because of impatience they were expelled, because of impatience they do not return.
Two Paradise Return
There are two cardinal human sins out of which all others derive, deviate, and dissipate: impatience and lassitude (or perhaps nonchalance). on account of impatience they are driven out of paradise; on account of lassitude or nonchalance they do not return. perhaps, however, only one main sense of sin is given: impatience. on account of impatience they are driven out, on account of impatience they do not turn back.
Two Nonchalance Paradise
You yourself create all your misery, hour after hour, day after day. you think the goal justifies the means, even the vile means. you are wrong: the goal is in the path on which you arrive at it. every step of today is your life of tomorrow. no great goal can be reached by vile means. that you have proven in every social revolution. the vileness or inhumanity of the path to the goal makes you vile or inhuman, and the goal unattainable.
Mean Thinking Goal
The length of the journey has to be borne with, for every moment is necessary.

When someone is seeking, it happens quite easily that he only sees the thing that he is seeking; that he is unable to find anything, unable to absorb anything, because he is only thinking of the thing he is seeking, because he has a goal, because he is obsessed with his goal. seeking means: to have a goal; but finding means: to be free, to be receptive, to have no goal. you, o worthy one, are perhaps indeed a seeker, for in striving towards your goal, you do not see many things that are under your nose.
Mean Thinking Goal
On some positions, cowardice asks the question, is it expedient? and then expedience comes along and asks the question, is it politic? vanity asks the question, is it popular? conscience asks the question, is it right? there comes a time when one must take the position that is neither safe nor politic nor popular, but he must do it because conscience tells him it is right.

Most men in a concentration camp believed that the real opportunities of life had passed. yet, in reality, there was an opportunity and a challenge. one could make a victory of those experiences, turning life into an inner triumph, or one could ignore the challenge and simply vegetate, as did a majority of the prisoners.
