| ... But if you do not will it, it is and
will remain a fairy-tale, this story that I have told you. I meant it to be a fairy-tale with
a moral. More fairy-tale than moral, some critics will say. And others - More moral than
tale!
For now, dear book, after three years of work, we must part -
and your path of sorrows is before you. You will have to make your way through hostility
and misrepresentation, as through a dark, evil forest.
But if you meet kindly people, my child, greet them in the
name of your father. He believes that dreaming is as good a way of spending our time on
this earth as any other, and dream and action are not so far apart as is often thought.
All the activity of mankind was a dream once - and will again be a dream.
