Once, an elderly general practitioner consulted me because of his severe depression. He could not overcome the loss of his wife who had died two years before and whom he had loved above all else. Now how could I help him? What should I tell him? I refrained from telling him anything, but instead confronted him with a question, "What would have happened, Doctor, if you had died first, and your wife would have had to survive without you?:" "Oh," he said, "for her this would have been terrible; how she would have suffered!" Whereupon I replied, "You see, Doctor, such a suffering has been spared her, and it is you who have spared her this suffering; but now, you have to pay for it by surviving and mourning her." He said no word but shook my hand and calmly left the office

وحَملتُها فَـ أنا المَسيح يَجرُّ في المَنفى صَليبه..

عندما اتخذ مؤسس الفلسفة الحديثة رينيه ديكارت مبدأ الشك لليقين، كان أبو حامد الغزالي قد سبقه في ذلك بعدة قرون، وإذا كان دانتي قد اقتبس فكرة “الكوميديا الإلهية” من كتاب المعري “رسالة الغفران” بعد ترجمتها إلى اللغة اللاتينية، فإن الأخير كان أيضًا سبّاقًا بطرح “العدمية” قبل شوبنهاور والفلسفة الوجودية عمومًا وبزمن بعيد.
ولقد فضلنا المقارنة هنا بين أبي العلاء المعري والفيلسوف الألماني آرثر شوبنهاور دون غيره، لأن القاسم المشترك فيما بينهما هو التشاؤم من جهة وتقارب نوع ما للوضع الفردي حياتيًا من جهة أخرى.
