ENGLISH QUOTE

" There was once a man, Harry, called the Steppenwolf. He went on two legs, wore clothes and was a human being, but nevertheless he was in reality a wolf of the Steppes. He had learned a good deal of all that people of a good intelligence can, and was a fairly clever fellow. What he had not learned, however, was this: to find contentment in himself and his own life. The cause of this apparently was that at the bottom of his heart he knew all the time (or thought he knew) that he was in reality not a man, but a wolf of the Steppes. "

(Hermann Hesse - Der Steppenwolf")

CITA EN ESPAÑOL

"Érase una vez un individuo, de nombre Harry, llamado el lobo estepario. Andaba en dos pies, llevaba vestidos y era un hombre, pero en el fondo era, en verdad, un lobo estepario. Había aprendido mucho de lo que las personas con buen entendimiento pueden aprender, y era un hombre bastante inteligente. Pero lo que no había aprendido era una cosa: a estar satisfecho de sí mismo y de su vida. Esto no pudo conseguirlo. Acaso ello proviniera de que en el fondo de su corazón sabía (o creía saber) en todo momento que no era realmente un ser humano, sino un lobo de la estepa. "

(Hermann Hesse - El lobo estepario)
