Was it possible that a bustling display of energy might only be a camouflage for a spiritual vacuum? The thought so impressed me that I mentioned it next day to the French purser, at whose table I was sitting. He nodded his agreement. "Stevenson is right," he said.

A lot of your countrymen keep so busy getting things done that they reach the end of their lives without ever having lived at all."
