/lit/ - Literature

Easily Dostoevsky.

>Bear in mind, dear Prince, there is nothing more hurtful to a man of /lit/ than to tell him he has no originality, has a weak character, lacks any particular talent and is an ordinary fellow (midwit).

>"This epilepsy will end up carrying me off! My memory has grown completely dim (completely!). I don't recognize people anymore; I forget what I read the day before. I'm afraid of going mad or falling into idiocy."

What if I experience these same symptoms periodically yet do not suffer from any such neurological disorder as epilepsy? It legitimately causes me to develop suicidal tendencies on the assumption that my organism is inherently inferior.
