Faith can move mountains; true: mountains of stupidity. - André Gide

L'homme se dégagera peu à peu de ce qui le protégeait naguère; de ce qui désormais l'asservit.

If this was happiness, I know that I wanted to hold it like one wants in vain to hold running water in joined hands. But I was already feeling alongside this happiness something other than happiness which was covering my love like the coloring of autumn.

J'aurais voulu pleurer, mais je sentais mon cœur plus aride que le désert.
