Ihave studied many times the marble which was chiseled for me-- a boat with a furled sail at rest in a harbor. in truth it pictures not my destination but my life. 5 for love was offered me and i shrank from its disillusionment; sorrow knocked at my door, but i was afraid; ambition called to me, but i dreaded the chances. yet all the while i hungered for meaning in my life. and now i know that we must lift the sail 10 and catch the winds of destiny wherever they drive the boat. to put meaning in one's life may end in madness, but life without meaning is the torture of restlessness and vague desire-- 15 it is a boat longing for the sea and yet afraid. based on the passage, which statement is a fact? a) the speaker was excited to be in love. b) the speaker uses a boat as a metaphor. c) the speaker uses an island as a metaphor. d) the speaker feels life without meaning is preferable.
