A Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Man by James Joyce. (Abridged Audiobook + Texts)

I will not serve in that which I no longer believe whether it call itself my home, my fatherland or my church: and I will try to express myself in some mode of art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can, using for my defence the only arms I allow myself to use-silence, exile, and cunning".
James Joyce - "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man", ch. 5
