Consciousness is for itself its concept, and as a result it immediately goes beyond the restriction, and, since this restriction belongs to it, it goes beyond itself too. … But it can find no peace; even if it wants to remain in an unthinking lethargy, thought spoils thoughtlessness, and its unrest disturbs that lethargy. … Even if it fortifies itself with sentimentality which assures it that it will find that everything is good in its own way, that assurance likewise suffers violence by the rationality that straightaway finds out that precisely because it is “that way,” it is thus not good.

(PhS §80/GW9 63)
