Zweig Stefan Quote

The beautiful dream of young love that ventures only on half-measures, that desires and dares not ask, promises and does not give.He was homeless in the noble sense of those who, like the Vikings and pirates of beauty, have collected in their intellectual raids all that is most precious in many great cities. He was close to all the arts in the manner of a dilettante, but stronger than his love for them was his sublime disdain to serve them.
