Answer: ignorance and blindness

Step-by-step explanation:

This question relates to the play, ''Our Town''.

The character in question is the alcoholic choirmaster, Simon Stimson, who took his own life in his attic by hanging himself.

Mr Stimson is a troubled character and in Act III of his play, gives a speech where he says that humans merely exist in ignorance and are led by blindness and their own self-centred passion.
