Albert Camus Quotes
It Was Through This Odor That He Saw The Museums And Discovered The Mystery And The Profusion Of Baroque Genius Which Filled Prague With Its Gold Magnificence. The Altars, Which Glowed Softly In The Darkness, Seemed Borrowed From The Coppery Sky, The Misty Sunlight So Frequent Over The City. The Glistening Scrolls And Spirals, The Elaborate Setting That Looked As If It Were Cut Out Of Gold Paper, So Touching In Its Resemblance To The Creches Made For Children At Christmas, The Grandiose And Grotesque Baroque Perspectives Affected Mersault As A Kind Of Infantile, Feverish, And Overblown Romanticism By Which Men Protect Themselves Against Their Own Demons. The God Worshipped Here Was The God Man Fears And Honors, Not The God Who Laughs With Man Before The Warm Frolic Sea And Sun.
