Used book – Nouveau devisement du monde, Claude Rives

"To see is not common. Vision is life's conquest. One always sees more or less as one is. The world is full of blind people with open eyes behind a film, in every spectacle it is their own cornea they contemplate... A beautiful journey is a work of art, a creation. A man travels to feel and to live. Every day he becomes richer from what he discovers...

One only travels to conquer or to be conquered... What journey will one make if one does not propose to conquer beauty, which is all that one loves?"
