All fixed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices and opinions, are swept away, all new-formed ones become antiquated before they can ossify.

relationships of all frozen solid, and with them a series of old and fragile prejudices are swept away; all that was newly formed was an antique before it became rigid; all that was solid was scattered in the wind, all that was sacred was rotten, and people were forced to face the real life and find their place in society .
