Daily Dose

From The Charterhouse of Parma, by Stendhal, translated by Richard Howard

"Reality still seemed to him flat and muddy; I can agree that one is not fond of considering it, but then one ought not to reason about it.  Above all, one ought not to raise objections against it with the various fragments of one's ignorance."

From
Chapter Eight
