I lead here an unbearable, solitary life, in grand but terribly Charmless surroundings.
"Correspondence of Wagner and Liszt, Volume 1"
Francis Hueffer (translator)
The isolated and Charmless existence you drag through here, to the satisfaction of none and least of all to your own, you can transform to one of fruition and satisfaction-breathing and moving healthily and beneficently in the light of day.
"The Complete Historical Romances of Georg Ebers"
Georg Ebers
True, to him even the most brilliant external gifts of life would be valueless and Charmless without her love.
