“Ne te laisse mettre en prison par aucune affection. Préserve ta solitude. Le jour, s'il vient jamais, où une véritable affection te serait donnée, il n'y aurait pas d'opposition entre la solitude intérieure et l'amitié, au contraire. C'est même à ce signe infaillible que tu la reconnaîtras. Les autres affections doiventêtre disciplinées sévèrement.”
