Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Anonymous

Le coeur a ses raisons, que la raison ne connatt point. [215]

Blaise Pascal Pensees

We have to describe and to explain a building the upper story of which was erected in the nineteenth century; the ground-floor dates from the sixteenth century, and a careful examination of the masonry discloses the fact that it was reconstructed from a dwelling-tower of the eleventh century. In the cellar we discover Roman foundation walls, and under the cellar a filled-in cave, in the floor of which stone tools are found and remnants of glacial fauna in the layers below. That would be a sort of picture of our mental structure.

C. G.Jung

"Mind and the Earth"

Je ne vois qu 'infini par toutes les fenetres. [216]

Charles Baudelaire Les Fleurs du Mai

A professor's view: "It's the commentaries on Shakespeare that matter, not Shakespeare."

Anton Chekhov Notebooks

Un livre est un grand cimetiere oil sur la plupart des tombes on ne peut plus lire les noms effaces, [217]

Marcel Proust
