Can human nature change radically? Can a man who is born good become evil through the fault of men? Can fate re-create the soul, and can the latter turn evil from an evil fate? Can the heart become distorted and acquire incurable deformities and infirmities under the weight of unbearable suffering, just as a man bends in a room that is too low? Is there not in every human soul a primal spark, immortal in this world and eternal in the life to come, which good can inflate, kindle and ignite to a bright glow and which evil can never finally extinguish?
