Fréquemment cités
Page 155 - All art, therefore, appeals primarily to the senses, and the artistic aim when expressing itself in written words must also make its appeal through the senses, if its high desire is to reach the secret spring of responsive emotions.
Page 156 - My task which I am trying to achieve is, by the power of the written word to make you hear, to make you feel — it is, before all, to make you see.
Page 36 - Je fay coustumierement entier ce que je fay et marche tout d'une piece ; je n'ay guere de mouvement qui se cache et desrobe à ma raison, et qui ne se conduise à peu près par le consentement de toutes mes parties, sans division, sans...

Page 73 - ... le berger, soigneux et attentif, est debout auprès de ses brebis; il ne les perd pas de vue, il les suit...
Page 29 - Le monde n'est qu'une branloire perenne. Toutes choses y branlent sans cesse: la terre, les rochers du Caucase, les pyramides d'AEgypte, et du branle public et du leur. La constance mesme n'est autre chose qu'un branle plus languissant.
Page 106 - Je sais seulement que la vérité est dans les choses et non pas dans mon esprit qui les juge, et que moins je mets du mien dans les jugements que j'en porte, plus je suis sûr d'approcher de la vérité : ainsi ma règle de me livrer au sentiment plus qu'à la raison est confirmée par la raison même.
