It takes a while to get egocentric, and it serves us as adults, I suppose. Yet we still ache to see a child in the pre-logical and magical world we've abandoned.

Qu'un peu de cette poussière s'allume dans un regard, c'est sans doute ce qui nous trouble, nous enchante ou nous égare le plus; mais c'est, tout bien réfléchi, moins étrange que de surprendre son éclat, ou le reflet de cet éclat fragmenté, dans la nature.
