Kelvollisuus on puolustusta parempi -- Ihminen päättää, Jumala säätää -- Joka kaivaa kuoppaa toiselle, lankee itse siihen -- Parempi myöhäänkin, kun ei koskaan.

| Summary |
"Kertoelmia" by Julius Axel Kiellman-Göransson is a collection of narratives written in the mid-19th century. The book appears to explore various stories and themes, likely touching on the lives and struggles of its characters in a historical or socio-cultural context. It delves into interpersonal relationships, aspirations, and the societal norms of the time, illustrated through a series of vignettes involving different protagonists. The opening of "Kertoelmia" presents two characters, Vaaranen and Mölhönen, who engage in conversation while taking a boat across a lake. Mölhönen seems to be a more arrogant individual, determined to secure a teaching position, while Vaaranen expresses a desire for a simpler life and a love for children. As they continue their journey, Vaaranen's humble demeanor stands in contrast to Mölhönen's ambition, showcasing their differing views on life. Their dialogue hints at deeper societal themes, like class and personal values, setting the stage for the unfolding narratives in the collection. The initial interactions suggest a blend of humor and social commentary that invites the reader to reflect on the characters' motivations and circumstances.
