ABANDON, CHASTITY, AND LIFE'S CURVE
. .. To set the sail and await the wind's pleasure and if it heads
me towards a reef and towards a shipwreck, I shall still be superior to those
who have never sailed but on the saddened waters of canals choked with
dead leaves."
'Chastity is by no means the necessary companion of intelligence and
yet it is perhaps one of intelligence's least equivocal friends. The principal
pleasure of that-state being the total absence of-sentimentalism, a state upon
which souls free from vice can glorify themselves. Vice is sentimental and
perhaps. that alone makes its ugliness."
...To live is to complete a sentence begun by another, but the one be-
gu by you another will complete. And thus it goes on toward the infinite,
following a curve whose beauty we do not fully comprehend."
-From "The Horses of Diomedes" by Remy de Gourmont.
RELEASE
"A spring there is whosesilver waters show,
Clear as glass, the shining sands below:
A flowery lotus spreads its arms above,
Shades all the banks and seems itself a grove
Eternal greens the mossy margin grace,
Watched by the sylvan genius of the place:
Here as I lay, and swelled' with tears, the flood,
Before my sight a watery virgin stood:
She stood and cried,-'O you that love in vain,
Fly hence and seek the fair Leucadian main
There stands a rock whose irn-ending steep
Apollo's fane surveys the rolling deep;
There injured lovers, leaping from above,
Their flames-extinguished and forget to love.
Deucalian once with hopeless fury burned;
In vain he loved, relentless Pyrrha scorned.
But when from hence he plunged into the main,
Deucalian scorned, and Pyrrah loved in vain."
-Englished from the Greek If Sapho by Alexander Pipe.
COSMOPOLITAN
"There are fine cities in the world, Manhattan, Ecbatana and Hecatomny-
plus-but this city of Troy is the most fabulous of them all. Rome was sev-
en hills of butcher's meat, Athens an abstraction of marble, in Alexandria the
steam of kidney-puddings revolted the Coenobites, darkness and size render
London inappreciable, Paris is full of sparrows, the snow lies gritty in Ber-
lin; Moscow has no versimilitude, all the East is peopled by masks and
apes and larvae. But this city of Troy is most of all real and fabulous within
its charnel beauty.
"Is not Helen the end of the search?"
-From "Leda" by Aldons Huxley.
CONVERANCES
..Intelligence and stupidity are, without doubt, forms and not degrees
of the mind ......
..for intelligence is a ladder and stupidity a wheelbarro.w......"
-From "The Horses of Diomedes", by Remy de Gourmont.
DOGMATIC
"Gratitude has a real element of affection only when the good deed is
continuous. Look at the dog, for the dog is man incomplete-luckily for
him. The dog, it is said, is capable of dying on its master's grave. This no-
ble deed illustrates the same phenomenn" ofimbnts-"c. -, +s 11,, ,pn,-(inn
its head for an hour against a window an inch thick and thinking: "I'll get
through if I try long enough!" Obviously this hypothetical dog imagines
that his master is going to come out o his grave some day with a large sup-
ply of bones-preferably his own.
"What is more, cut off your dog's food and he witl cut off his -tti-
tude. For my part, every time that my Fido licks my hand, I suspect that he
is tasting me."
-From "Teodoro, The Sage," by Luigi Lucatelti.
AVE ET SALVE
Upon vieving the remains of dead loves.
"Hail to you, ladies, and farewel' for you and I have done with love:
Well, love is very pleasant to observe as he advances, overthrowing all an-
cient memories with laughter. And yet for each gay lover who concedes the
!ordship of love, and wears intrepidly love's liveries, the end of all is death.
Love's sowing is more agreeable than love's harvest: or, let us lut it, he
allures us into byways leading no whither which fall before the first rou;'i
wind: so at last, with much excitement and br-ath and valuable time quite
wasted, we find that the end of all is death. Then would it have been more
shrewd. dear ladies, to have avoided love? To the contrary, we were un-
speakably wise to indulge the high-hearted insanity that love induced:
since love alone can lend young people rapture. however transiently. in r
world in the result of every human endeavor is transient, and the end
of all is death."
-From "Jurgen", by James Branch Cabell.
