"Being by the nature of my upbringing, all my energies having been directed to one channel of activity, crippled from other activities and made helpless even to live"

- Isaac Rosenberg

About this Quote

This quote by Isaac Rosenberg reflects on his childhood and just how it has formed his life. He recognizes that his training has guided all of his energies right into one network of activity, leaving him unable to seek various other tasks and also to live. This suggests that his upbringing has restricted his capacity to discover various other interests as well as to live a full life. It is likely that Rosenberg is assessing the lack of liberty and possibility that his childhood has actually supplied him. He might be feeling aggravated and defenseless, as he is unable to pursue various other tasks or to live a life that is not dictated by his childhood. This quote is a powerful reminder of the effect that our upbringing can have on our lives and also the restrictions it can impose.
