H.G. Wells Quote

¡Este estúpido mundo! -dijo-. ¡Qué complicado es todo! No he vivido hasta ahora. Me pregunto cuándo empezaré. Dieciséis años tiranizado por niñeras y maestros de escuela, sometido a su santa voluntad; cinco años en Londres estudiando medicina con ahínco: mala comida, alojamientos miserables, ropas raídas, vicios lamentables. Jamás conocí nada mejor. Luego, empujado a esta isla infernal... ¡Diez años aquí! ¿Y todo para qué, Prendick? ¿Somos como las pompas de jabón que soplan los niños?
