Quotemeal: Sep. 28th, 1954

Tuesday, September 28, 1954

"By means of art we are sometimes sent - dimly, briefly - revelations unattainable by reason. Like that little mirror in the fairy tales - look into it, and you will see not yourself but, for a moment, that which passeth understanding, a realm to which no man can ride or fly. And for which the soul begins to ache..."
— Alexander Solzhenitsyn
