Evidence: | ' I am disappointed that it is not raining, but bethought myself that it might rain at the time of the procession. I washed, dressed and shaved in an even more leisurely manner than usual; for I dislike hurrying over this operation, since I often feel worried at the beginning of the day, and I feel the need of time to brood on my worries. I prepared and ate my breakfast, over which I read part of the Communist Manifesto from Emile Burns' "Handbook of Marxism".' |
