Jacob’s Quotes

Robert Louis Stevenson
“I have been made to learn that the doom and burden of our life is bound forever on man’s shoulders; and when the attempt is made to cast it off, it but returns upon us with more unfamiliar and more awful pressure.”
― Robert Louis Stevenson, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
