Washington Irving's collective book of "Tales of a Traveler" includes the section of "The Adventures of the Mysterious Picture". This story deals with the strange, somewhat horror story of a group of travelers staying in a mansion of one of their friends.
This group were then told by their host that there is a haunted chamber but it will be seen whose room was the next morning. They will have to wait to see who the hero of the night will be.

Concentrated? I don't know. Does this have multiple choice questions?
So okay ahahahaha babahahaha
This quote helps/relates to people in real life understand that when someone is in a hard place and Doesn’t know what to do anymore, they start to think of different possibilities of what could happen. When someone loses themselves to that point they start to think of themselves to a point of questioning you they are. When they think hard about it hard enough or if it pops in their mind, they find there worth and begin to understand their self more.
Hope this helps :)
