passage in this unit.
One of Anne’s Diaries:
Saturday, 15 July, 1944
“For in its innermost depths youth is lonelier than old age. ” I read this saying in some book and I’ve always remembered it, and found it to be true. Is it true then that grownups have a more difficult time here than we do? No. I know it isn’t. Older people have formed their opinions about everything, and don’t waver before they act. It’s twice as hard for us young ones to hold our ground, and maintain our opinions. . .
Anyone who claims that the older ones have a more difficult time here certainly doesn’t realize to what extent our problems weigh down on us, problems for which we are probably much too young, but which are continuous, until, after a long time, we think we’ve found a solution, but the solution doesn’t seem able to resist the facts which put it to nothing again. That’s the difficulty in these times: ideals, dreams, and cherished hopes rise within us, only to meet the terrible truth and be destroyed.
It’s really a wonder that I haven’t dropped all my ideals, because they seem so unbelievable and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. . .
