I don't know what happens next, I can't possibly know, I don't wish to know, but if that's all I want, if I want glory, if I want to be famous and loved by everyone, it's not my fault that I want this! ... What can I do, if I care for nothing but glory and the love of men? Death, wounds, the loss of my family - nothing can frighten me. I would give them all up for one moment of glory, triumph over men, to be loved by men I don't even know.
