Every drop of water is dangerous, from leaky faucets to the near-constant rainfall, and a careless trip outside can mean a life down the drain.

I dolori del giovane Werther è un romanzo epistolare di Johann Wolfgang Goethe pubblicato nel 1774. Il Werther appartiene all'età giovanile di Goethe ed è considerato opera simbolo del movimento dello Sturm und Drang, anticipando molti temi che saranno propri del romanticismo tedesco.Beethoven ammirava questo libro di Goethe, che considerava "un artista che cammina dinanzi a tutta l'umanità". La cornice musicale è dunque l’Ouverture dell’Egmont, che Beethoven scrisse appunto ispirandosi al dramma di Goethe.
