Margaret Fuller Quote

To feel that there is so quick a bound to intercourse, makes us prize the moment, but then also makes it so difficult to use. Yet this one thing I wish to say, where so many must be left unsaid. You tell me, that I may, probably never know you wholly. Indeed the obstacles of time and space may prevent my understanding the workings of character; many pages of my new book may be shut against me, better than to yourself. Perhaps? I believe in Ahnungen beyond anything.

Ahnungen means "Premonitions"; letter XIII to James Nathan (31 March 1845). - The Love Letters Of Margaret Fuller (1903)
