"For a moment I felt an indescribable, painful, and useless longing for myself: then there was 'he' alone, der Unbekannte, the Unknown, there was nothing but him... He was the stronger of the two, and I was the mirror." ---Rainer Maria Rilke, tr. Franco Moretti, "The Way of the World: The Bildungsroman in European Culture"
