spirit 



To be bourgeois is to be without spirit, yet being without spirit is also a kind of despair. Being bourgeois lacks every determination of spirit and calculates probabilities, in which field it finds its narrow expression; so it lacks possibility of experiencing God. Since the bourgeois is always without fantasy, he must live within the boring and narrow limits of his experience, as how things happen, what is possible, what usually happens; the bourgeois in this case can be as well a beer man as a prime minister. Thus the bourgeois has lost himself being without himself and without God...
