Romanian

"Când citești cărțile scriitorilor care au plecat de mult din viață, te cuprinde întotdeauna un sentiment ciudat: acești oameni, care au trăit cu două sute, trei sute, două mii de ani în urmă, sunt atât de străini astăzi - oriunde s-ar afla - de ceea ce au scris cândva pe pământ: iar noi căutăm în scrierile lor adevăruri eterne!"
