“Ah ! que paraît salubre à tout être l’air qui n’a pas encore été respiré ! Bernard suit la grille du Luxembourg ; il descend la rue Bonaparte, gagne les quais, traverse la Seine. Il songe à sa nouvelle règle de vie, dont il a trouvé depuis peu la formule : « Si tu ne fais pas cela, qui le fera ? Si tu ne le fais pas aussitôt, quand sera-ce ? » – Il songe : « De grandes choses à faire » ; il lui semble qu’il va vers elles. « De grandes choses », se répète-t-il en marchant.”

“The obvious definition of a monarchy seems to be that of a state, in which a single person, by whatsoever name he may be distinguished, is entrusted with the execution of the laws, the management of the revenue, and the command of the army. But, unless public liberty is protected by intrepid and vigilant guardians, the authority of so formidable a magistrate will soon degenerate into despotism. The influence of the clergy, in an age of superstition, might be usefully employed to assert the rights of mankind; but so intimate is the connection between the throne and the altar, that the banner of the church has very seldom been seen on the side of the people. A martial nobility and stubborn commons, possessed of arms, tenacious of property, and collected into constitutional assemblies, form the only balance capable of preserving a free constitution against enterprises of an aspiring prince.”

“Killing is not something you do privately, in the space of your own head. It happens here.” She opened her arms, as though to embrace the whole world. “In the relationship between bodies…” “It's the same with love,” she went on. “You're going at the whole thing as though it's a problem with you, inside of you, sealed off from the rest of the world. It's not. Love isn't a part of you or your lover. It's not something you can have, like a pile of gold or a pet pig. Love is this,” She said, gesturing into the emptiness between us. “The space between.” “There's space everywhere,” I growled, “between everyone.” “Don't be obtuse, Pyrre. It's the nature of the space that matters.”
