Zitate von Samuel Johnson

The black dog I hope always to resist, and in time to drive, though I am deprived of almost all those that used to help me . . . When I rise, my breakfast is solitary, the black dog waits to share it, from breakfast to dinner he continues barking, except that Dr Brocklesby for a little keeps him at a distance . . . Night comes at last, and some hours of restlessness and confusion bring me again to a day of solitude. What shall exclude the black dog from a habitation like this?
