Excerpt from The Confessions of a Little Man During Great Days: Translated From the Russian of Leonid Andreyev
Of course, I don't deny that there's a restlessness and anxiety at bottom. I can't exactly describe the sensation; it's a kind of gnawing despair that comes over one mostly in the morning at breakfast. You no sooner open your paper (i take in two besides Kapeika) than you are brought back to the horrors that are happening over there to those poor Belgians, to their houses and children, and you feel as though some one had poured cold water over you, and turned you out naked on a frosty winter's day. Still, this sensation has no relation to fear; it's merely a feeling of human pity for those in distress.
