Dearest Kitty,
My blood runs cold when Peter talks about becoming a criminal or a speculator; of course, he's joking, but I still have the feeling he's afraid of his own weakness.

Is it really such an admirable trait not to let myself be influenced by others? Am I right in following my own conscience?
