Some one has killed herself for love of you. I wish that I had

ever had such an experience. It would have made me in love with

love for the rest of my life. The people who have adored me-there

have not been very many, but there have been some-have always

insisted on living on, long after I had ceased to care for them,

or they to care for me. They have become stout and tedious, and

when I meet them, they go in at once for reminiscences. That

awful memory of woman! What a fearful thing it is! And what an

utter intellectual stagnation it reveals! One should absorb the

colour of life, but one should never remember its details.

Details are always vulgar."
