All through it, I have known myself to be quite undeserving. And yet I have had the weakness, and have still the weakness, to wish you to know with what a sudden mastery you kindled me, heap of ashes that I am, into fire- a fire, however, inseparable in its nature from myself, quickening nothing, lighting nothing, doing no service, idly burning away. ✨ Charles Dickens (2005). A Tale of Two Cities - Literary Touchstone Edition, p.143, Prestwick House Inc
