We consider it innocent to desire, and heinous that the other person should do so.

The creation of the world did not occur at the beginning of time, it occurs every day.

But I consoled myself with the reflexion that in spite of everything she was for me the real point of intersection between reality and dream.

So difficult is it for us to know, with the dead as with the living, whether a thing would cause them joy or sorrow!

She was capable of causing me pain, but no longer any joy. Pain alone kept my wearisome attachment alive.
