Excerpt from The Brotherhood of Letters
"It is the nature of the soul to appropriate all things... I conquer and incorporate them in my own conscious domain. His virtue, - is not that mine? His wit, - if it cannot be made mine, it is not wit." - Emerson: "Compensation."
"My respiration rose; I felt a rapid fire colouring my face... I was Eucharis for Telemachus and Erminia for Tancred; however, during this perfect transformation I did not yet think that I myself was anything, for anyone. The whole had no connection with myself; I sought for nothing around me; I was them, I saw only the objects which existed for them; it was a dream, without being awakened." - Madame Roland's description of her first reading of Telemachus and Tasso.
The gods need never trouble themselves to bestow a greater gift upon a favourite child than a powerful and healthy imagination.
