In order to dive into those recesses and lay them open to the reader in a striking and intelligible manner, tis necessary to assume a certain freedom in writing, not strictly perhaps within the limits prescribed by rules.”

“Never resist a sentence you like, in which language takes its own pleasure and in which, after having abused it for so long, you are stupefied by its innocence.”
