| Evidence: | 'Why? Largely to find out so far as possible, what is happening. Sometimes I am so much in despair about the possibility to [of] finding out this from papers, that I can't bear to read them for a few days. I find though that [if] I am out of papers for a short time, I get very worried and jumpy. I feel very much that I am a part of the world and I must know about it. Yet I am almost always disappointed in my reading and finish it in discomfort.' |
