What is the way by which one can acquire a quality
at its purest, highest and most perfect?
It is by setting an opposition to it.
That is how a power is increased and strengthened -
by fighting against and overcoming all that weakens and contradicts it.
The deficiencies with respect to a particular quality
show you where you have to mend and reinforce it
and in what way to improve it in order to make it perfectly perfect.
"My difficulty shows me clearly what I have ultimately to represent.
To reach the absolute negation of it, the quality at the other pole -
this is my mission."
