I have been an 'Official' all my life, without the least turn for it. I never could attain a true official manner, which is highly artificial and handles trifles with ludicrously disproportionate gravity.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich war mein ganzes Leben lang ein "Beamter", ohne die geringste Wendung dafür zu erhalten. Ich konnte nie ein wahres offizielles Verhalten erreichen, das höchst künstlich ist und Kleinigkeiten mit lächerlich überproportionaler Schwerkraft handhabt.
