Page 341 - Seht die Lilien an: entspringt nicht Gatte und Gattin auf Einem Stengel? Verbindet beide nicht die Blume, die beide gebar, und ist die Lilie nicht das Bild der Unschuld, und ihre geschwisterliche Vereinigung nicht fruchtbar?
Page 28 - There were in it metaphors as monstrous as orchids, and as subtle in colour. The life of the senses was described in the terms of mystical philosophy. One hardly knew at times whether one was reading the spiritual ecstasies of some mediaeval saint or the morbid confessions of a modern sinner.
Page 433 - Action is consolatory. It is the enemy of thought and the friend of flattering illusions. Only in the conduct of our action can we find the sense of mastery over the Fates.
