Fëanor presses on toward Angband in rage

…Fëanor, in his wrath against the Enemy, would not halt, but pressed on behind the remnant of the Orcs, thinking so to come at Morgoth himself: and he laughed aloud as he wielded his sword, rejoicing that he had dared the wrath of the Valar and the evils of the road, that he might see the hour of his vengeance. Nothing did he know of Angband or the great strength of defence that Morgoth had so swiftly prepared: but even had he known it would not have deterred him, for he was fey, consumed by the flame of his own wrath.  ( “Of the Return of
the Noldor”, The Silmarillion)

“Wrote nothing. Weltsch brings me books about Goethe that cause a scattered, useless excitement within me. Plan for an essay, “Goethe’s horrible essence”. Fear of the 2-hour evening walk that I have introduced to myself.”
