Art is the only way to escape the horror of existence.

The world is so unhappy because it is ignorant of the true self. Man's real nature is happiness. Happiness is inborn in the true self. Man's search for happiness is an unconscious search for his true self.

The novel is an act of rebellion against reality, an attempt to reshape the world according to one's desires.
